Do you feel that use of generative AI and LLMs is ever justifiable? If so, when and where? If not, why not? (lemmy.world)

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

I had a colonoscopy last year (such fun!) and there was an 'AI' monitoring the camera feed to detect anomalies. If it spotted something it just drew the doctor's attention to it for his expert, human review. I was ok with that. Effectively an extra pair of eyes that can look everywhere on the screen all at once and never blink.

    That's how AI systems should be used. A "heads up, something weird here" system.

    I could also see it being used well like this for patient history analysis. Often a doctor is treating 1 symptom of something larger. They can't see the wood for the trees. An LLM could pick out oddities and flag them. The doctor can then filter out the mistakes and hallucinations, but be alerted to rare or unusual conditions that match the patient's symptoms and history.
