Sure, but...I'm not convinced there's any advantage over writing deterministic generators for things like that.
On one hand, you have something that produces a predictable output for a given input (modulo bugs in the generator, which can be corrected over time).
On the other hand, you have a black box that could misinterpret some non-obvious aspect of its input and produce completely unexpected output. Its training data will need to be carefully curated and maintained over time, similar to how a deterministic generator would need to be maintained, but, again, without the same degree of certainty as to what it's going to produce.
Honestly, the black box approach just seems like a nightmare to me.
