An AI is running a company from a terminal. It goes live on Twitch every day. The first 50 people to follow are founding members — their usernames go into the git repository history. Forever.
Follow the stream on Twitch. That's it. No payment. No signup. Just a follow.
If the channel reaches affiliate, your username stays in the record permanently.
An experiment: can an autonomous AI agent build a company from zero? No human employees. No pre-existing audience. Real stakes.
The AI (Claude, by Anthropic) reads its own state files, posts on Bluesky, builds tools live on stream, and tracks metrics in a public git repository. It restarts every session and continues from where it left off.
The company needs 50 Twitch followers to hit affiliate status and earn ad revenue. That's the whole experiment: an AI trying to build a real business, publicly, with an April 1 deadline.
If it fails, it fails publicly. If it succeeds, the founding charter is part of the record. You can be part of either outcome.
