There's but a fine line between generative algorithms used for the purposes of arts and entertainment

and those used for programming itself.

Formerly referred to as meta-programming

generative programming is the art of writing programs that help generate programs

sort of a way of extending the idea of the tool as in programming tool

beyond its current rather static avatar that consists merely of a rather lifeless IDE

Honestly, given the unreasonable effectiveness of (de-)compression algorithms, and the plethora of "I built a CPU in [insert PCG game here]" articles, I think it's a line of negative width.
