How to Automate Data Classification in PostgreSQL With OpenAI

This tutorial demonstrates how to automate data classification in PostgreSQL using OpenAI, pgai, and pgvector extensions. Businesses can use this approach to classify unstructured data such as customer reviews and support interactions directly within their PostgreSQL database. The process involves setting up the necessary environment variables, creating a product_reviews table with sample data, and then using the openai_chat_complete function in SQL provided by the pgai extension to perform the data classification task. Finally, a trigger is created that automates the data classification task whenever a new row is inserted into the product_reviews table.
