AI for Databases & SQL
Master database work with AI — write SQL queries, design schemas, optimize performance, clean data, and build reports faster using AI-assisted database skills.
What You'll Learn
- Use AI to write accurate SQL queries from natural language descriptions across major database systems
- Design normalized database schemas with AI assistance for real-world applications
- Analyze query execution plans and apply AI-recommended optimizations for better performance
- Build automated data cleaning and transformation pipelines using AI-generated scripts
- Create interactive dashboards and reports by combining AI-written queries with visualization tools
- Evaluate database security practices and implement AI-assisted access controls and backup strategies
Course Syllabus
Every database professional spends hours writing queries, debugging joins, and optimizing slow reports. AI changes the equation dramatically — turning natural language descriptions into working SQL, suggesting schema improvements, and identifying performance bottlenecks in seconds.
But AI-generated SQL isn’t always correct. This course teaches you the critical skill of working WITH AI on databases: how to prompt for accurate queries, verify results, optimize performance, and build reliable data pipelines. You’ll learn to combine AI speed with the judgment that production databases demand.
Whether you’re a data analyst writing reports, a developer designing schemas, or a business professional who needs answers from data — this course makes you dramatically faster and more capable with databases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to know SQL already?
Basic SQL knowledge helps (SELECT, WHERE, JOIN), but this course teaches you how to use AI to bridge your knowledge gaps. If you've written a few queries before, you're ready.
Which databases does this course cover?
The principles apply to all major databases — PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server, and cloud databases like Supabase, BigQuery, and Snowflake. AI adapts to whichever system you use.
Can AI really write production-quality SQL?
AI writes excellent first-draft queries. This course teaches you to verify, optimize, and adapt AI-generated SQL for production — combining AI speed with human judgment for reliable results.
Is this course for data analysts or developers?
Both. Data analysts will learn to write complex queries faster. Developers will learn to design better schemas and optimize database performance. AI accelerates both workflows.
