Oh! I just did this (used an AI chatbot to help me code a web app) to easily resize images.

It was a great experience and I only edited about 5% of the code it provided. I used the bot via DuckDuckGo. The app is simple, eh, but it works. Would vibe code again fer sher.

Yeah but you could've googled it and found that it already exists and edited 0% of the code...

If that's your concern, you could just use gimp or krita or similar

Or do it with one command using ffmpeg

Does no-one remember the image-magick anymore?

Okay hang on...this could be a thinly valid use for "vibe coding."

Is the only software for a particular use case proprietary, ad-ridden, and/or subscription forced, but you don't have time to dedicate to an entirely new project?

Quickly throw together open sourced "good 'nuff" alternatives to big corporate software!

Put their own tail between their jaws and see how they like it.

Oh, I didn't even notice how much ublock had blocked 😂
