Age of Beyond

Aze Alter

"If humans and AI unite, we may reach the Age of Beyond." A three-and-a-half-minute vision of a utopian future written, directed and edited by Aze Alter, co-produced by Nyukyung and scored by Scott Buckley, made with Luma, Kling, Runway, MiniMax and Midjourney, with voices and sound from ElevenLabs. It passed 1.9 million views on YouTube on its own.

Eighteen months later, on September 20, 2026, Elon Musk posted it with the line "This is the future we shall bring into being" and pinned it to his profile. The post passed 89 million views, giving an AI short an audience few films of any kind reach.
