China Media Group (CMG) launched on its digital platform Yangshipin the miniseries "Chinese Mythology" and "Reading Classics with AI", as well as an AI channel at a ceremony on Friday.

Attending the ceremony were CMG President Shen Haixiong and officials from the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the National Radio and Television Administration, among others.

There will be a total of six episodes to "Chinese Mythology," the country's first AI-generated miniseries throughout the whole process, covering classical Chinese mythological stories such as "Patching the Sky," "Chasing the Sun," and "Filling up the Sea."

The series will extend the boundaries of the audiences' imagination with the help of AI, while maintaining a sophisticated connection with human society through classic imagery that bears the spirit of this nation through generations.

The production process of art and storyboard designs, composition, voicing and video production is entirely AI-powered, jointly created by Yangshipin, CMG's AI lab, and the metaverse lab of Tsinghua University.

Meanwhile, CMG also launched another miniseries, "Reading Classics with AI," which decodes the secret to the longevity of Chinese culture imprinted in the studies of history, literature, agronomy, pharmacy and tea.

At the ceremony, Yangshipin announced its plans to create tourism-centered AI miniseries to help build up the brands of Chinese cities featuring culture and tourism, as well as the first AI-themed gala to invite leading figures of the industry to attend and showcase the vast potential of AI applications, exhibiting China's breakthroughs in AI.
