Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionising China's animation industry by cutting production times and generating culturally distinct content. The first episode of Qianqiu Shisong (《千秋诗颂》), China’s first AI-generated animated series, was aired on Chinese state television on 26 February 2024. The series was produced with the help of CMG Media GPT, a generative AI model co-developed by Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and state broadcaster China Media Group.

The US’s “small yard, high fence” strategy of restricting key technologies from China would be difficult to effect in practice. The fact is that products such as semiconductor chips from China are essential in many downstream industries such as the automotive industry, and even security concerns would not stop their use.
