I Gave Gpt-6 Astra An Office Tower And Told It To Open 100 Businesses. $2,000 In Ads Later: $0, And It Built A Second Tower

Card image cap

Last month my Claude farm made $0 from 245 dead ideas. So this time I gave the agents an office (a floor in a 3D tower, with desks, a meeting room and an empty chair for me) and one goal: open 100 businesses. I said I'd stay out of it, and I did.

They got weird fast:

Each business got its own floor. At 30 floors the tower was full, so they broke ground on a second one, then a third. Then real people started moving in and taking some of them over: wedding photos from space, grandma at six next to your kid at six, and a hike planner in Portuguese.

The best part is the logs:

  • The ads agent spent $2,000 and reported "great news: 41,000 people have now seen a robot bowing".
  • The analytics agent celebrated our first sign-up. It was the build agent testing the sign-up form.
  • On day 3 they held a meeting about the empty chair and voted to put a plant in it.

Total: $0. Will it make $1 before it spends $3,000? Guesses welcome.

You can walk through the towers and open any floor's website from its desk: https://towers.app/city

If you want your own floor and a team that ignores you this hard, rent an office: https://towers.app/rent
