ClawdBot makes money

An AI agent experiment is underway to test whether autonomous systems can build and operate profitable online businesses with minimal human input. The setup involves multiple agents collaborating to research, plan, build, and run the business, aiming for $10,000 monthly revenue. Past examples show agents already running simple e-commerce stores. The broader idea is that solo founders can use AI tools to replicate high-earning digital businesses by combining research, automation, and rapid development. 

These agents can code, deploy websites, manage operations, and even fix themselves. While early and unpolished, this approach may mark a shift in how future businesses are created and run.

If you’ve ever tried AI video and thought “cool… but why does my character’s face melt in shot two,” this update is aimed directly at that pain.

What’s new: better consistency for characters/elements, 15-second clips with improved control, and customizable multi-shot workflows (so it’s not just one shaky clip). There are also audio upgrades (multi-character references + more languages/accents), and on the image side: 4K output and a “continuous shooting” mode for more cinematic-looking sequences.

The catch: early access is tied to higher-tier subscribers, and there aren’t official details yet on a broad rollout, API, or full technical docs.

Why I care: this is exactly the direction we need for creators — not “one impressive shot,” but repeatable assets you can cut into a real edit.

This one is pure practical power: two new speech-to-text models — one for batch transcription and one for live streaming.

The headline features:

  • Speaker diarization (that’s “who said what,” labeled by speaker)

  • Word-level timestamps (so you can jump to exact moments)

  • Context biasing (you can feed it names/terms so it stops butchering them)

  • Realtime mode with latency configurable down to sub-200ms for live voice apps

  • Pricing called out: $0.003/min (batch) and $0.006/min (realtime)

  • Realtime weights are released as open weights under Apache 2.0, with a release on Hugging Face mentioned.

Why I care: “good transcription” used to mean slow, pricey, or messy. This is trying to make it cheap enough and fast enough that you stop hesitating and just transcribe everything (meetings, interviews, voice notes, brainstorming rambles).

Anthropic basically says: ads don’t belong inside an AI chat, because these conversations are more personal, more open-ended, and easier to influence than search or social feeds. So, no sponsored links beside chats, no advertiser-driven steering, no surprise product placements.

Their core argument is incentive-shaped: if the business model depends on ads, you eventually optimize for engagement and transactions — not for helping you think clearly (or finish faster). They position their approach as paid subscriptions + enterprise contracts, plus user-initiated integrations with third-party tools (not advertiser-initiated).

Why I care: if an AI is going to feel like a notebook, a coach, or a quiet planning room — it can’t also feel like a mall.

🧠RESEARCH

Researchers discovered that AI models can process computer code more efficiently by treating it as an image rather than text. This visual approach compresses data significantly while still allowing the AI to understand the software. By using visual cues like color-coded syntax, the models save computing power without losing accuracy.

This study reveals that AI models do not map out a complete solution before they start reasoning. Instead, they figure things out one step at a time, similar to walking in a fog. The authors developed a new method to detect when an AI is uncertain about its path without checking every single step.

MARS is a new AI system designed to conduct its own research experiments automatically. It breaks complex projects into smaller tasks and carefully balances the cost of running tests against the potential results. This "smart planning" allows it to outperform other automated tools on difficult engineering problems.
