User repurposes DALL-E mini for iterative illustration creation

A user has developed a method for creating illustrations by iteratively stitching together outputs from the older DALL-E mini (Craiyon) image generator. This process was made more efficient by porting the original transformer model to MLX, allowing it to run quickly on Apple Silicon hardware. The user created an "illustration harness" that takes a scene description in JSON format, renders it, and uses the outputs to refine the illustration, demonstrating a novel approach to image generation.
