You can take “justifiable” to mean whatever you feel it means in this context. e.g. Morally, artistically, environmentally, etc.

    It’s never justifiable because it can and will output incorrect information. It’s made my job worse because it means confidently incorrect people bug me when it’s wrong and I have to explain why it’s wrong.

      That’s not really new, or unique to AI. The whole “field” of eugenics was created to give racism the mantle of scientific legitimacy. People will pick through a haystack of data to find a needle that supports (however tenuously) whatever they want to be true. LLMs are just a more convenient way to find or invent those needles.
