## Prompt

```text
Create a short origami / doodle-style animation showing humanity’s development, progress, and civilization from birth to the present, and ultimately the hatching of AI. AI then gradually develops and advances, eventually hatching today’s Opus 5.5 (you). Style: doodly, cute, warm, strongly narrative, no spoken language (simple text is OK, but don’t use too much explanatory/narrative text, because I want different civilizations to be able to understand it), poetic, moving, high quality.
