An open source Robot + Claude Opus 5 = Basic Painting

A developer used Claude Opus 5 to control a SO-101 robot arm equipped with a paintbrush, instructing it to paint the Golden Gate Bridge. The experiment, which took approximately 45 hours, showed iterative improvements in painting quality, with more details added and mistakes corrected in each iteration.

This report uniquely details the iterative process and time investment (45 hours) required for an AI to achieve basic painting, unlike typical demonstrations of immediate results.
