Where Databricks Genie falls short, per the models
- GPT Best only for organizations already centered on Databricks; adopting the platform mainly for Genie brings excessive complexity and cost
- Claude Break out of the Databricks lock-in — first-class support for querying non-Databricks data sources would make it the default everywhere, not just for existing customers.
