SMRTR summary

Where the Robots Grow, released in October 2024, is the first feature-length animated film made entirely with AI tools. Produced by AiMation Studios for $8,000 per minute, the 87-minute film follows a robot named Cru who discovers the last human baby on a new planet. Created by a team of nine, it's available for free on YouTube to showcase AI-driven production capabilities. While visually impressive, particularly for robotic characters, the film's simple story targets young children.
