In MySQL, the MEMBER OF() operator tests whether or not a value is a member of a given JSON array.
It returns true (1) if the array contains the value, and false (0) if it doesn’t.
The MEMBER OF() operator was added in MySQL 8.0.17.

How JSON_OVERLAPS() Works in MySQL
In MySQL, JSON_OVERLAPS() is a function that tests whether or not two JSON documents have any key-value pairs or array elements in common.
The function returns true (1) if the documents have any key-value pairs or array elements in common, and false (0) if they don’t.
The JSON_OVERLAPS() function was added in MySQL 8.0.17.
About the JSON_MERGE() Function in MySQL
In MySQL, JSON_MERGE() is a deprecated function that merges two or more JSON documents and returns the result.
It was deprecated in MySQL 8.0.3 and is subject to removal in a future release.
Fortunately, the JSON_MERGE_PRESERVE() function was added in MySQL 8.0.3 as a synonym for JSON_MERGE(), and it therefore does the same thing that JSON_MERGE() does/did.
Therefore, instead of using JSON_MERGE(), use JSON_MERGE_PRESERVE() instead.
Alternatively, you can use JSON_MERGE_PATCH(), which performs an RFC 7396 compliant merge of two or more JSON documents, without preserving members having duplicate keys.
How JSON_TABLE() Works in MySQL
In MySQL, JSON_TABLE() is a built-in function that converts JSON data into a relational form.
In other words, it lets you return a JSON document as a table.
The JSON_TABLE() function was introduced in MySQL 8.0.
JSON_INSERT() vs JSON_SET() vs JSON_REPLACE() in SQLite
SQLite provides several functions for inserting, setting, and replacing values in a JSON document. Specifically, it provides json_insert(), json_set(), and json_replace().
These functions perform similar tasks, and you can sometimes use them interchangeably to a certain point.
But there is definitely a clear difference between each function.
