Jayden Schaefer
Welcome to the AI Hustle podcast. I'm your host Jayden Schaefer, joined by the legendary Jamie McCully. Today on the podcast we wanted to talk about a new phenomenon that is all over Twitter called claudebot. If you are not a developer like myself, I'm not a developer. I want to break this down for non technical people. Technical people are obviously going to love this, but the reason I want to bring this up is because I think this is the future of what, like there's going to be tools like this that are coming out for non developers very soon. So I want to break down what developers are doing with, with cloudbot right now and kind of where I see the future of this. Essentially it's an autonomous AI model that lives on your device so on your computer and it goes and completes actions for you. Now this sort of sounds familiar because we have things like ChatGPT agents, but that sort of lives inside of ChatGPT. And then we have, you know, we have like different things inside of browsers. Like there's like a anthropics Claude browser extension that can sort of do some things for you. So anyways, all of these things are kind of coming together. This is a really interesting new project. So I'll break down everything going on here and where I think this will go in the future. But before we do, Jamie, why don't you tell us about the school community?

Jamie McCully
Yeah. So if you've ever wanted to, you know, make money on the side or even grow your business using AI. You need to check out our school community. We recently started a brand new series on how you can use lovable and different vibe coding apps to create your own software that actually works and does things for you. I created two different widgets to add to my website, which helped me actually rank for Google Gemini for a specific term. So we're really diving deep into the whole Vibe coding things, specifically with app creation and website rankings, things like that. So if that if has any interest to you, you need to check out our school community. It's only 19amonth. We have over 300 members there and it's a great place to just stay up to date with some of the latest strategies on how you can make money using AI. So we release bonus content every single week. We have a variety of different categories, but like I said, right now we're focusing on on vibe coding and we have a course coming out on that. So that interests you. Check it out. But let's talk about this Claude Bot. I think this is a really interesting concept. I actually ran into a scenario recently where I had. I wish I had something like Cloud Bot and that is on Instagram. I made a post about, I want to do a poll of like how many people live in West Michigan that follow me on Instagram because I want to. I'm trying to grow a realtor business and so I want to reach out to those people with an offer. And I was planning on using ManyChat, which is like an autorespond tool that's connected to Instagram, but it won't do survey response. So if people, you know, check to a survey, I have to manually go in and send them a message. But if I had something like cloudbot, I could have it actually perform the action for me, which is pretty exciting. So, Jane, why don't you tell us a little bit more about claudebot.

Jayden Schaefer
Okay, so what a lot of people are doing with this and the tweets that are going viral on X about this is people saying they bought. They buy like a MacBook or they buy a Mac Mini computer and then so it's its own separate computer. And then they get claudebot and they run it, they set it up on here and they give it tasks and jobs and it will just run them full time. It has full access of the computer, everything on the device. In reality, you don't need a Mac Mini if you're. I mean, you technically can run this thing on a Raspberry PI, but if you're not a Developer, you probably don't want to mess around with that, but you could run it on a virtual private computer as well, which is easy to set up a virtual private computer and have this thing downloaded and running on. So what it can do, it runs on your device and it can work with any chat app. So it can do WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal or iMessage, and it can message those things. So what a lot of people are doing is they're going to set it up with a task like, hey, every time I, you know, for example, for Jamie, and I'd be like, every time I record podcasts, go grab the podcast from our, from Riverside, do these edit features for us, and then download the podcast and put it into this folder. And we probably could then get it to upload it and like, just go through the whole process of what we need it to do. Like, it becomes, because it can control the entire computer, the entire device, it can do everything. And it has root access as full access to read and write files. Which, I mean, to people is like, kind of scary, right? Like, if you give it root access to your computer, but especially if you're running it on its own device, it can go. And this thing can run 24. 7. So you could just give it all of these tasks. I mean, it's. It's like a new way of automating software. Basically, any, any job that you're trying to automate this thing can run 24. 7 Just completing tasks on a computer. It has persistent memory, so it remembers everything you tell about it. You tell it. So it's like very unique. Your preferences, your context, everything is all remembered there. And then it has browser control, so it can go on the Internet, it can search the web, it can fill out forms, it can extract data from any website. So it's like a scraper, it's a bot. It can take actions for you. And then what's really cool is that it can be plugged into a whole bunch of different software and plugins. So they have a list of like all of the integrations that it currently works with. So currently it's got a bunch of the chat models that I talked about in. It integrates with Anthropic, OpenAI, Google XAI, Openrouter, Mistral, Deepsea, Cogging Face. For Plexi, a bunch of those. Then for productivity, it's got like Apple Notes, it's got Trello, GitHub. Notion. For music, it can do Spotify and Shazam. For your smart home, it can do like Philips Hue and eight sleep your home assistants. It can do all of your Chrome browsers. It can do Gmail, weather password, webhooks. It could do cron jobs developers. That's pretty cool. It's like scheduled tasks basically. Image generation, gif searching, cameras, Twitter. It can go and like reply to people on Twitter if we need more Twitter spam, I don't think so. But it also can read and send emails which is really interesting. And then it works on Mac, iOS, Android, Windows and Linux. And yeah, it's amazing. Okay, this is cool. And to set this thing up you do kind of need to be a developer. I mean you have to, you could watch a tutorial probably and get it pretty, pretty quickly but like if you have an aversion to code then just know that these same tools are going to be coming out very soon for non developers and like just start thinking today about we're in such a bubble and I think people on the cutting edge of this are really cutting edge but just start thinking about like what are the tasks I could get this thing to complete? Like, like what, what tasks do people normally normally do all day, every day? Like you can train this thing to do that. And as these things get better at clicking and understanding like this is the system that people are going to use to fully automate a job role, like an office job role basically.

Jamie McCully
Yeah. So just to clarify something that's different about this compared to like you know, the Atlas browser or something like that is that you can go outside of your browser and actually interact with files on your computer. Is that the main benefit? Okay, okay, is it and is this the first of its kind or just what's, what's going viral about this? Specifically what use cases are people doing with this right now currently?

Jayden Schaefer
So the one interesting one from like an hour ago on X I saw was Kevin Xiu, he said, gave claudebot access to my portfolio. Trade this to a million dollars. Don't make mistakes. 25 strategies, 3,000 reports, 12 new algorithms. It scanned every X post, charted every technical traded 24, 7 it lost everything but boy was it beautiful. Okay, this was a joke but like I think in this joke is a concept of what it can do, right? Like trade this to a million dollars. Don't make mistakes. Don't make mistakes is kind of the, the meme of like that you tell Claude, don't make mistakes and of course it's gonna make mistakes but so don't give it like a grow my business 10x tomorrow. Like don't give it like a Job like that, but give it like a job. And what inside of this, what he said is possible. It can create 25 strategies, it can create 3000 reports, it can create new algorithms, it can scan every post on x and work24.7. So like it is very useful and it's got a lot of cool things. There was another. I kind of X is so bad because this is like super useful and insanely useful, but there's so many memes coming out about it. One of the funny ones that I saw was someone saying, like, feeling very demoralized after setting up claudebot, I realized that there's nothing in my life, I do that, like nothing very important that I actually do on my life that's worth automating or something. Like it's not that. Not high enough value. But yeah, there is some. There is some really cool stuff. Okay, here's one that someone said. They said just to see what would happen. I texted someone my Claude bought to make a reservation for me next Saturday at a restaurant. Um, when the Open Table reservation wasn't working, it used its 11 Labs skill to call the restaurant and completed the reservation and was able to do that. So like, yes, you could use Open Table, but Open Table wasn't working or something's not working or something's broken or I mean a lot of ideas you have. There isn't another way to do it. So is there other softwares or tools or things that sort of work? Yes, but this feels like the first like platform that is all encompassing and can connect to everything and take control of an actual computer. And one thing I will say it's called claudebot, but it's not made by Anthropic. It's. You can connect Claude to it, but you can also connect Google or OpenAI or a lot of other things. It's just an indie dev that. That made this.
- [10:37]
Jamie McCully
Yeah, it's Claw D bot. So not Claude, it's Claw D. So but yeah, interesting. Yeah, that the. I would be interested to see if it could do any trading for you. If you do like paper trading just with imaginary money, obviously you'd want to do that first, but just to see if it could actually make a positive difference or not. But that's a funny use case.
- [11:04]
Jayden Schaefer
So one other thing that I will say about claudebot is that there's a lot of. Yeah, like there's. There's a lot of very interesting things that you can do with it for sure. And I, I've had people like one of them that I saw someone was Talking about was like, they would have it every day, go check their app calendar, and it would like, make like a little report that it would text them because it works with every messaging app. So basically he'd get a text every morning with like his meetings and like anything he needed to prepare for them. So, like, you could do things like that where it's going and checking on different services and it's sending you messages. It's like, it feels like it's kind of replacing N8N or Zapier, where you set up these, like, really complex automations that could go do something. Now you just have an AI model that you don't have to go on Zapier. You don't have to mess around. You just explain what you want it to do and it will go and accomplish all of the tasks for you.
- [11:53]
Jamie McCully
Yeah, no, that's. That's super cool idea. I'm definitely going to be playing around with it to see what I could come up with. I wonder if you could have it help you manipulate your AI Streaming music, streaming Hustle, since it can interact with Spotify. If you could have it, like bot stream your.
- [12:09]
Jayden Schaefer
Your stuff, you know, I do not endorse bot streaming. You'll get banned. When I was a young lad, that was definitely something that was interesting to me and no good ever came of it and everything got banned. So don't. I don't endorse it. But yeah, I mean, there's a lot of interesting things you could do. It definitely could help me edit music and post music and, and do a lot of the processing of that kind of stuff. So I do think there's a lot of interesting, A lot of interesting tools and stuff you could get this thing working on. So that's pretty cool.
