Bring up the subject of artificial intelligence (AI) and it tends to elicit one of two reactions. Either it’s the technology that will save us or it’s going to take our jobs. Both of these responses are understandable.
After all, there’s plenty of good AI can bring to the world. It could help us cure diseases and solve other highly complex problems.
Yet there is also a case to be made about the potential impact on workers. It may just render certain jobs obsolete. There’s plenty of reason to have concern about what that could mean for a lot of people and industries.
Where does that leave web designers? I’ve seen read opinions that are on both ends of the spectrum. Some think we’re doomed, while others paint a much rosier picture of the future.
Since everybody has an opinion, I’ll throw mine out there as well. My take is that AI isn’t likely to have the negative impact on web design that some fear. Allow me to outline a few reasons why.
The Web Designer Toolbox

Our Clients Will Still Need Real People
Sure, there are some tools out there that purportedly allow anyone to build a website by answering a few questions. Enter your industry and a few facts about your business and, voila, you have a “stunning” website.
However, this really isn’t a thorough enough solution for most organizations. It deals more in broad generalizations and decorates them with stock photography.
For a website to be effective, it has to cater to the needs of both clients and their target audience. They are not one-size-fits-all. And, in many cases, clients may not even know what they need until someone takes the time to discuss it with them.
Even the best of chat bots is unlikely to ask the right questions. That’s why a human conversation is necessary to get the details right.
Then, too, the design and build processes also require a personal touch. An app might produce some revisions on its own, but it may be quite some time before they can tease out a person’s actual needs and preferences.
Clients still need us to guide them on the right path to help them achieve their project goals.
AI Tools Will Be There to Help with Efficiency, Not Replace Our Judgment
It’s easy to imagine design and development tools that use their magic to do all the dirty work for us. If something is there to pick all the colors and write all the code – what’s left for us humans?
We’re already seeing this in tools such as Photoshop, where we can detect faces or even replace the sky with just a few clicks. For some of us, that may at once sound scary and awesome.
But it’s also important to think about purpose. These advancements are there to help us get things done more efficiently. They aren’t necessarily replacing humans – just saving them from some tedious work. Other apps will likely aim to do the very same for writing code or developing UIs.
One potential concern here is that more efficiency means fewer billable hours. Another could be that our clients will simply use these tools themselves rather than pay us.
This isn’t out of the realm of possibility. However, the more advanced the app, the more initial and ongoing financial investment that will be required to use it. Not to mention the education and experience necessary to get the most out of the technology. Taken together, we can pass along a portion of the costs and use our expertise to achieve the desired results.
Ultimately, it will be web professionals who put all of this together into a working final product. So, just as we’re using things like page builders or code frameworks to help us get things done, we’ll also adopt AI apps. They’ll be there to help us in new ways and save us precious time.
Web Designers Will Need to Adapt – Just Like Always
If you’ve been in the web design industry for a while, you have likely seen a lot of shifts over time. You probably need more than your hands and feet to count the number of changes you’ve experienced. The work has evolved in numerous ways both large and small.
Artificial intelligence may well be just another in a long line of changes. True, it may be bigger than most. But it’s something we can adapt to – just as we have with so many other rising technologies.
Maybe it is a bit scary to think about. But I think that’s only natural, as so much remains unknowable. However, we can’t let that stop us from preparing as best as we can.
In practice, this is about learning new skills and tools. From there, we must leverage that knowledge in order to make AI work for us. See where the opportunities are and position ourselves to take advantage.
If that sounds familiar, it should. This is what web designers have been doing for decades.

A Fortran compiler has been added to the
Free Fortran Compilers page.
It handles the Fortran 2003 language (as well as some features of Fortran 2008) but the next version will support
the Fortran 2018 language specifications. This compiler only works on Linux but you can find Fortran compilers
for other systems, such as Windows and macOS, on
that page as well.

We may take CSS for granted, but it’s amazing to think about just how powerful it has become. What started out as a simple way to style various design elements has evolved into so much more. We now use the language to handle tasks such as layouts and animation with ease – and without a second thought.
But it doesn’t stop there. CSS is also being utilized to build fully-interactive UIs. Things that used to require JavaScript now can be done with code that is natively supported in all modern web browsers.
Among the best examples of this trend are the bevy of pure CSS games that are popping up. They’re fun to play and give us a hint as to what can be achieved with a little creativity.
Here’s a look at some of the best pure CSS games on CodePen. They range from the stupefyingly simple all the way to “wow, CSS can do that?” – enjoy!
The Web Designer Toolbox
Unlimited Downloads: 1,000,000+ Web Templates, Themes, Plugins, Design Assets, and much more!
Rock, Paper, Scissors
A session of rock, paper, scissors is always a great way to beat boredom. If you don’t have a partner to play along, you can give this virtual version a go. Click on your weapon of choice and then on the “Fight!” button to see how you did. The game uses HTML radio buttons and some random CSS to power the match.
See the Pen Pure CSS Game Rock Paper Scissor by Jerry Low
Minesweeper for Git Commits
This game combines the classic premise of Minesweeper with the look of a GitHub contribution graph. See how many squares you can paint before hitting one of those pesky mines. Again, CSS is used to generate “random” locations for each mine.
See the Pen CommitSweeper – Pure CSS Game by Stephanie Eckles
Save the World from Demons
Here’s a simple shooter game that asks you to take out some demonic minions (no, not those minions). Place your cursor over a demon and click to send them packing. A quick look under the hood reveals that HTML checkboxes and animated GIFs are making the whole thing work.

Demon Killer II by Mark Sottek
You Want Cake? You’d Better Earn It.
Sure, everybody wants some cake. But this game may drive you mad in its pursuit, as it takes some dexterity with your mouse. Hover over a tiny box and avoid the little crumbs and sprinkles. If you make it through, you shall be rewarded. Move your cursor too far, though, and you’ll have to start all over again.

Guess the Movie
This little trivia/hangman-style game makes clever use of the CSS :valid and :invalid pseudo-classes to guide you towards a correct answer. First, you’re shown a set of emoji that represents a movie. From there, you’re expected to type in the movie’s name. But each form input only has a single valid letter. CSS will tell you if you’ve entered the right one (or you could just look at the source code).
See the Pen Guess The Movie – a mini CSS game by Inès
I Ain’t Afraid of No Ghosts
Here’s another shooter game – but with a twist. This time around we’re hunting down ghosts in a whack-a-mole type of setup. The difference here is that you only have 15 seconds to work with. It’s a good demonstration of timing animations with CSS. How many can you blast?
See the Pen Pure CSS ghost bustin’ game w/ CSS variables 👻🕹#CodePenChallenge by Jhey
Stack ‘em High
Reminiscent of Tetris, this game challenges you to stack groups of moving blocks on top of each other. It may sound easy enough, but requires precise timing to get right. Now, if I could just find my old Game Boy…
See the Pen Pure CSS Game: Stacker by Jerry Low
You Sunk My Battleship
Grab a friend (or your alter ego) and play a spirited game of Battleship – powered only by CSS. While it’s not quite as secretive as the physical version, it does provide a nice foray into conditional logic. Take a look through the code to see how it works.
See the Pen CSS Game: Battleships by Daniel Schulz
Playing Around With CSS
CSS provides us with more than just a way to make our websites look attractive. It can bring movement and interactivity as well.
And, though the games in this collection may not be practical for everyday use, they do demonstrate just how powerful the language has become. Studying these examples can provide you with an idea of how to leverage CSS to build more interactive experiences.
