Google Apps Script

Google Apps Script appears in EP 17: AI’s Impact on Creativity: A Consumer’s Perspective as the JavaScript-like automation environment Mark uses around Google Apps spreadsheets. Mark describes himself as not being a computer professional, so ChatGPT helps him generate code snippets that he can paste, test, and adapt for forms, spreadsheet inputs, and spreadsheet-change workflows.

In the wiki, this is a low-stakes example of AI Assisted Light Coding. It sits next to broader AI Assisted Software Development Risk because generated code can save time, but the user still needs context, testing, and responsibility for the spreadsheet behavior.
