China's claimed first fully AI-generated theatrical feature earns an estimated $181,000 through Monday

Cartoon Brew reports that producers call 'Sanxingdui: Future Past' China's first fully AI-generated theatrical feature. The film earned an estimated $181,000 through Monday after its October 23 debut; Bona Film Group says it cost more than $1.5 million. By contrast, the crudely animated 'Niu Lai' has grossed nearly $10 million after a slow August start.
