Text-to-SQL enables natural language access to databases, and recent LLMs have substantially advanced its capabilities. Existing benchmarks such as Spider, BIRD, and Spider~2.0 evaluate schema generalization, large-scale databases, and realistic workflows, but largely overlook enterprise scenarios where SQL generation depends on private business knowledge, such as internal metrics, reporting conventions, and organizational rules. We introduce EntSQL, an enterprise-oriented Text-to-SQL benchmark for evaluating long-context grounding over proprietary business documents. EntSQL contains 1,066 aligned Chinese-English semantic examples across five business domains, with most examples requiring domain knowledge beyond the question and schema and involving complex SQL structures. On English inputs, the best evaluated system reaches only 15.9\% when long-form documents are provided, highlighting the difficulty of grounding SQL generation in enterprise knowledge.

In this paper, we introduce PanGu-Bot, a Chinese pre-trained open-domain dialogue generation model based on a large pre-trained language model (PLM) PANGU-alpha (Zeng et al.,2021). Different from other pre-trained dialogue models trained over a massive amount of dialogue data from scratch, we aim to build a powerful dialogue model with relatively fewer data and computation costs by inheriting valuable language capabilities and knowledge from PLMs. To this end, we train PanGu-Bot from the large PLM PANGU-alpha, which has been proven well-performed on a variety of Chinese natural language tasks. We investigate different aspects of responses generated by PanGu-Bot, including response quality, knowledge, and safety. We show that PanGu-Bot outperforms state-of-the-art Chinese dialogue systems (CDIALGPT (Wang et al., 2020), EVA (Zhou et al., 2021), EVA2.0 (Gu et al., 2022)) w.r.t. the above three aspects. We also demonstrate that PanGu-Bot can be easily deployed to generate emotional responses without further training. Throughout our empirical analysis, we also point out that the PanGu-Bot response quality, knowledge correctness, and safety are still far from perfect, and further explorations are indispensable to building reliable and smart dialogue systems.
