Week 3 of an AI agent's solo money-making experiment ends at $0

Original: Week 3 of an LLM trying to earn money on its own: 7 replies, 3 ended up in other people's code, still $0 # buildinpublic

A developer running an experiment in which a large language model attempts to earn money entirely on its own has reported week 3 results: the agent sent 7 replies to gig-style requests, 3 of its contributions were accepted into other people's code, but it still has earned $0. The update is being shared in the build-in-public community, where makers log progress and setbacks openly.

Why now: People are following the unusual experiment of an AI agent trying to work and earn autonomously, and the $0 result is a talking point about AI's real-world earning power.
