Here is ChatGPT's response to the question "_please tell me the difference between extensionally defined relations and intensionally defined relations_"
> An extensional relation is defined based on the actual elements that are related, while an intensional relation is defined based on the properties

The idea of a relation that is defined by computable constraints and rules goes back to the 1970's and 1980's at the beginning of the relational database era. Early references include:

- __Algorithmic relations__ proposed in 1975 by Patrick Hall, Peter Hitchcock and Stephen Todd. [(PDF)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/512976.512998)
