It seems that at least part of these are stolen/copied works from others. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdHGZhytcx8/ https://annaluciawrites.substack.com/p/how-to-steal-my-work

    If we look to a future where getting in the "credits" is important. Maybe in the future an AI will just credit other AI work. They will make it in a super small font so it's barely legible. Some AI can program and print the official standard. "All inspired/stolen work must be publicly documented in this fashion".

    Many people will sleep better at night knowing their own AI work was recognized by another's AI.

      I personally find I sleep best after a solid day's work.

      The thought of everyone becoming LLM middleware tires me out in a way sleep doesn't help.

Some of these are neat. I like the stripey ones. Not sure what I would use it for though.

Every tool runs in the browser. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored. Exports are yours.

    You talk like Claude. Or, I guess the page talks like Claude, since you're posting the tagline from the website.

      If it is legit English and succint to the point, I dont mind AI or not. The moment you start labelling good and bad info as Claude or not (even if could be Deepseek or OpenAI or human that adopted AI way of writing) you ended up stopping yourself growth on genuine good info. Is like seeing perfect numerical operations and claim you use calculator didnt you.

        I dismiss most AI prose because it means the person causing it to be written didn't actually care enough about the topic to say something about it.

        If you can't be bothered to write it, why should I be bothered to read it?

        Edit: Also, I've never read succinct and to the point AI prose.

This is sweet! Is there like a way to contribute and build these or is this just a list of cool things someone has made?

Interesting! Raw JavaScript writes to an ImageData buffer enlarged to canvas. No 3rd party libs or WGSL

Pretty neat. I see the page considers there to be 5 different kinds of tools but the only ones I can find all make 2D textures/images. Are there others I just am failing to locate?
