An AI agent paints the Mona Lisa in Microsoft Paint, from one call
We gave a Melaya agent a demanding, visual and unforgiving test: paint the Mona Lisa in Microsoft Paint. It planned every stroke as code, saved the plan, then ran it in a single call while a desk camera showed nobody on the mouse. The film is the full run at 5x speed, never cut.

What is on screen
The film has music only, no voice-over. These are its on-screen captions, in order.
- How it started: the first attempts, two smileys, then a first colour version from one call.
- Filmed on the desk. Nobody on the mouse.
- Melaya Computer Control. Mona Lisa, one call, 17,386 strokes.
- Block in with the brush.
- Forms.
- Detail everywhere with the pencil.
- Every stroke, checked against the screen.
- Touch the mouse. It pauses, checks the window, resumes.
- 08:35. Done. Last stroke at 08:35.5 on the stopwatch.
- The original vs Melaya, one call.
Why paint the Mona Lisa?
A painting is not a business process, and that is the point. If an agent can place seventeen thousand strokes exactly where the plan says, filling a table, entering a batch of invoices or walking a form row by row is well within reach.
