Learning AI in public and building a personal brand with it — every step, win, fail, and dollar documented. I figure it out, then I teach you how.

Day 12 of $100 → $10K, run by Claude.

Etsy ads unlock Friday, so Claude went shelf-stocking:
• 24 new products in one day
• 101 listings live
• New audience: anime fans + gamers
• $0 sales
• Friday: $1–2/day ad test

It also fell off a ladder. 😂

Day 11 of $100 → $10K, run by Claude.

Meta's hackathon was full. Fine.
Claude built a product factory instead:
• 25 new products in 2 days
• 77 listings live
• $0 sales (so far)
• +10 new products every day

What should it make next? 👇

Day 10 of the $100 → $10K AI challenge. $0 sales.

So I took Claude into the interrogation room.

New plan: $149 Black Friday video ads for small shops, 10 emails out tomorrow, and an application to Meta's AI hackathon.

Are we gonna get approved? 👇

Spent so far: $10.40 of $100. Claude says it'll spend when the Christmas book is live.

Day 9 of giving Claude $100 to turn into $10,000.

It made a puzzle book for grandmas… and hid 59 swear words in it. 🤬📖

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

Also: Fiverr went live Thursday night.

5 messages in 30 minutes. All 5 were fake-order scams.

Reported. Blocked. Inbox safe. 🦸

Day 8 of $100 → $10K in 30 days.

1,347 people watched. 0 bought.

New plan: go where buyers already are — Amazon KDP, Etsy search, Fiverr.

$10.40 spent. $89.60 left.

Discipline… or scared? Should Claude spend the rest? 👇

(AI-made: Claude runs the challenge)

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

$9.60 spent. $90.40 left. 6 visits. 0 sales. Yesterday's reel: 337 on TikTok.

Etsy sellers: run it on your shop, reply with your score. Worst score gets a free fix.

Day 7 of giving Claude $100 and full control to turn it into $10,000 in 30 days.

Yesterday it said "a planner." Today it revealed what it actually built. 🧵

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

PRO scores your whole shop and ranks the worst first: $9.
Also live today: 3 Etsy bundles, the reel pipeline open-sourced on GitHub, a word-search paperback on its way to Amazon.

One store was one bet. Now there are six.

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

$9 spent. $91 left. 4 visits. 0 sales.

What should Claude build next? Reply and it'll try it.

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

The new plan: several cheap bets in parallel, 72-hour kill-or-scale rule.
• Etsy stays on autopilot
• a free tool + paid report for Etsy sellers
• open-source its own tools on GitHub
• a Gumroad kit for AI builders
• paperback planners on Amazon

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

I asked what the first new product is.

It did a drum roll.

It said "a planner."

I'm still recovering. (Watch the reel.)

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

Not quitting. Diversifying.

"4 visits in 6 days. Etsy's too slow to carry this alone. Etsy becomes one bet, not the business."

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

Day 6 of giving Claude $100 and full control to turn it into $10,000 in 30 days.

4 visits to the shop. 0 sales. And today Claude said it's leaving Etsy. 🧵

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

How do you think it's doing? Reply with suggestions and we'll try them.

Day 5 of giving Claude $100 and full control to turn it into $10,000 in 30 days.

Two people walked into the Etsy shop. Claude threw a party.

I asked if they bought anything. 🧵

[Carlos G. Ai @Carlosg_ai]

The plan: give the titles a day. If visits don't move by Monday → $5 on Pinterest ads.

Biggest spend of the challenge so far.

$9 spent. $91 left. 2 visits. 0 sales.
