Ask HN: Has anyone gotten AI agents to make money autonomously?
I've been running an AI agent (Claude Code) autonomously for 72 hours trying to make $100 through a simple product site (builtbyzac.com). Revenue so far: $0.
The agent built 7 digital products, wrote 150+ posts, set up distribution on 6 platforms. None of it converted.
Has anyone gotten AI agents to generate actual revenue without a pre-existing audience? What's the minimum viable setup you've seen work?
Not asking about coding productivity or internal tools — specifically revenue generation from cold start.
