Would love to see a generative AI tool that can integrate the QR/barcode into the artwork itself. Maybe in the next version… Maybe someone could vibe code that.

Seems like you could build that in ComfyUI. Mix in the QR code into the starting noise, and reinforce it after each round as necessary.

Probably a low success rate on it both looking nice and it actually scanning in the real world, though.

No need for neural networks: https://www.andrewt.net/dithered-qr-codes/wtf/

Not with an iPhone pass you couldn't. Apple renders the barcode, it's not just a big image you pass in.
