Is there a way in the GUI or CLI to generate a large amount of integrated addresses?
I'd like to have a bunch of addresses on hand so I don't have to open my wallet just to generate one.

You probably should be using subaddresses instead of integrated addresses. You can have a view only wallet so that if your server is compromised, your funds cannot be stolen.
If you really want to generate an integrated address without a wallet see here on how to do so: Generate an integrated address using javascript in the browser?

Im fine using the wallets to create the integrated_addresses, I just would like to be able to make more than just 1 at a time.– WhichDrCommented May 15, 2020 at 6:08

The best way to create numerous addresses would be to write a python script using the monero-python package. Start the rpc: monero-wallet-rpc. Then run the script, that you have created.– t-900Commented May 16, 2020 at 1:34

A shell (e.g. bash) and the
monero-wallet-cliis all that's needed. monero.stackexchange.com/a/12212/7493 Commented May 17, 2020 at 10:12
On *nix this is quite easy:
seq 5 | xargs -IN echo integrated_address N \
| monero-wallet-cli --wallet-file MyWallet --password MyPass
Which would create 5 integrated addresses each with a payment ID (1 to 5).
No need for 3rd party libraries, javascript/python or browsers.
