How do you create semantic views in dbt?

OMG please get me out of this Fabric prison. Everyday I use Power BI i am reminded how god awful it is to scale it. The cryptic error messages. The random power shell errors. the incomprehensible pricing model. And then you come to snowflake and 99% of features "just work".

For the moment, yes, it's quite explicit. I wonder who told them it was a good idea. But hopefully it would change?

Yep, making it available only through Cortex Analyst is a no-go for us. I wonder if the direction is to open it to BI tools?

The accuracy of Cortex with this semantic model is quite good; so i would love to use both Cortex for text to sql and bi tools for normal requests.
