ASCII pictures can be generated - there are plenty of programs which do that already. You could even generate ASCII images of sequences of characters and/or letters, add a fuzzyness factor so they're never the same, and display them out to the screen - it can be automated without much difficulty.
Trying to write a script to read that image, however, is far from easy. Unfortunately, for the same reason, blind players would also have serious difficulties.
They only take a few seconds to write - why not? You could put together a database of them, perhaps even find an external source where you can grab the data from.
True - except in a few rare cases, scripting will always be possible and provide at least some advantage. However you can certainly reduce the value of scripting so that it merely helps the human, rather than replaces them. I believe you can also reach the point where a skilled player can do just as well without scripts.
