Watch Claude AI take control of a computer and build its own website from scratch

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Now AI Agents can do low-level work on your laptop. Paper pushers are on notice: the bots are coming for your job.


Anthropic just showed off a new trick — its AI assistant Claude can now take over your computer’s mouse and keyboard, clicking and typing its way through tasks while you sit and watch. All you have to do is tell it what you want done.

In a video, Developer Relations lead Alex Albert walks through a process where Claude performs multiple website development steps autonomously. The AI navigates Chrome, interacts with web interfaces, and even engages in a unique AI-to-AI interaction.

When Alex asks Claude to create a 90s-themed homepage, the AI springs into action: it opens Chrome, searches for Claude.ai, and types in a prompt asking its AI counterpart to generate the retro website. It’s like a ghost is sitting in front of the computer. Within moments, “Claude.ai returns some code, and that gets nicely rendered in an artifact on the right-hand side.”
