OUR NOTEA four-minute animated essay from a single prompt: Fable 5.5 wrote the script, animated every frame in code and composed the score, tracing fear of new tools from Socrates on writing to a 2176 future via stamped labels, curves and timelines.
Asked Claude fable 5.5 for an animated film about the next 150 years of humanity.
One prompt. It wrote the script, animated every frame in code, and composed the score.
4 minutes, from math teachers protesting calculators in 1986 to a kid in 2176 who finds fusion boring.THE PROMPT
