## Summary

A fully AI-generated film, *Gods Don’t Give Gifts*, is due to open in US cinemas, with musician Grimes involved in a cameo. Its release marks what the article describes as the first AI-generated film to receive a US theatrical release, amid continued efforts to bring AI-made films to audiences.

The science-fiction anthology was created by YouTuber Zack London, who independently plans to distribute it from 4 December and submit it for Oscar consideration in the animated feature category. Set in a future shaped by transhumanism, it features Grimes as Zayinth Alda, an aristocrat who visits a dreamspool dealer; the article does not clarify how her cameo was made.
