So, I am *not* a coder. I'm a designer first and foremost and even then, I'm not a very active one. But with the emergence of easy auto coding tools, lots of open source libraries, and a lil ai assistant to tell me why my stuff won't compile, I've cobbled together some basic scripts to do things just for me. Mot of these are batch image processing things for grabbing all of my scanned images or photography and quickly cutting them up or smashing parts together, since I get overwhelmed by having too many steps in the editing stages of my work. These aren't polished, they shouldn't be used for professional or commercial projects, these aren't even guaranteed to be functional for anyone except me. But here's what they are: free, open source, up for grabs. If you think you can make use of them, have at it.
Disclaimer: Generative AI was used in most of these for languages that I don't actually know how to code in.
(So basically anything that isn't html/css at this point OTL)
I fully believe that the only way to ethically use generative AI is to make the results fully open source, with the conditions that everyone who also uses AI to iterate and improve on it does the same. If you look at the code, go "aha, I can use this" and you add to it in a fully transformative way without AI assistance, as far as I'm concerned? It's yours now. Do what you want with it. Otherwise, if you feed this into chatgpt or gemini or cursor or whatever... Please only share it with the same mindset, and use it to enhance your creative potential, not replace it. AI assisted tools should be used to make you a better human, not replace your humanity. I personally think that if we're going to train machines on the sum of all human knowledge (with or without the consent of the people who did the original work, unfortunately...) then at the very least that machine should be used to help all people, not just the ones who pay for the privilege. So please don't use anything that machines make to replace your own creative process and bypass the part that makes it art.
So, that said here's my github! And I'll have examples and updates here soon!
