## Summary
Generative AI can help with parts of taxonomy creation (like suggesting narrower terms, organizing flat lists, finding synonyms, and writing SPARQL) but it cannot build a complete, reliable taxonomy alone. AI outputs often have errors, inconsistent relationships, and lack user-centered design elements that taxonomists provide. Human experts are still needed to review, test, and integrate taxonomies with real content and users.
