Connecting AI directly to the data sources (instead of just asking it to provide code that I run locally for myself) can get quite complicated in terms of meeting institutional policy, applicable law, data access-storage requirements (e.g. NIH data repositories), and can require legal agreements between institutions and the AI provider.

I cannot touch. At least not yet.

If you put your data in Snowflake then there is a built in AI (ok it’s Claude) that can access the databases. This sidesteps a lot of the issues in that the data is clearly already with Snowflake.
