BigQuery now lets admins set daily token quotas for LLM-backed SQL by project and user.

The project defaults are 200B input and 20B output tokens. Exhaustion blocks new LLM calls, but embedding functions are excluded. Token caps aren't dollar budgets; model pricing and job…

Google Cloud BigQuery AI Integration: Architectural Advantage or Operational Bloat? + Video
Introduction: The push to integrate Artificial Intelligence natively into cloud enterprise warehouses like Google Cloud BigQuery promises unprecedented analytics capabilities alongside continuous automated model generation. However, embedding large language models (LLMs) and predictive analytics directly into core data pipelines creates severe architectural friction between immediate processing power and ballooning operational expenses. Organizations must balance the strategic benefits of autonomous data processing against the risks of unmanaged compute bloat, spiraling query costs, and shadow AI workflows.

Supported targets were Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Fabric and MotherDuck.

I kind of feel validated once again for my decision to not rely on any vendor for business logic inside a transformation pipeline and just use plain SQL instead 🤷
