Interactive Data Integration through Smart Copy & Paste
Summary: Proposes Smart Copy & Paste (SCP), a unified interactive model that merges design‑time and run‑time for ad‑hoc data integration by watching user copy/paste into a spreadsheet-like workspace to infer extractors, schemas and mappings. CopyCat prototype surfaces auto-completions with provenance and learns from user feedback. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
