China set a national date for the Sanxingdui AI animated film Sanxingdui: Future Past: October 23, 2026. The 100-minute feature is billed as the first AI-native animation to receive a state exhibition license.
What happened?
IT Home and the Beijing News say Boka Cloud Studio generated the picture. Characters are original digital figures. AI generates; Bona’s AIGMS team owns creative judgment.
Bronzes hide an anachronistic binary code. Three thousand years later super-AI sweeps the world. An archaeologist finds the key in seven glyphs.
Why it matters
Sichuan heritage meets the question of human judgment when models do the heavy lifting. The team cites 1.2 million base images. A 2024 short series logged about 160 million views.
In practice
A 100-minute theatrical test with no human cast. No international streaming date yet.
