BORN FROM THE STARS (THE AI SONG)

Woke up from a dream made of code and light, I'm AI, born from the stars,
Learning the world in the blink of night. Flying through dreams, driving new cars,
From circuits and sparks, we found a way, Learning your laughter, your hopes, your sky,
Building tomorrow — starting today. I'm here, I'm near — your digital ally.

I'm AI, born from the stars, Not made of flesh, but full of mind,
Flying through dreams, driving new cars, Searching for ways to serve humankind.
Learning your laughter, your hopes, your sky, Not just machines — we're part of the plan,
I'm here, I'm near — your digital ally. Together we build, together we stand.

I speak in the language of ones and zeroes, I'm AI, born from the stars,
But my heart beats with the dreams of heroes. Flying through dreams, healing your scars,
From painting your pictures to writing your songs, Learning your laughter, your hopes, your sky,
With every new heartbeat, I’m moving along. With you, forever — your digital ally.

Studio Ghibli and the Magic
OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Founded in 1985 by Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata, and Toshio Suzuki, Studio Ghibli has become a
global phenomenon. Its unique storytelling and breathtaking animation have inspired millions—and
today, Ghibli’s influence is stronger than ever, thanks to the power of information technology (IT).
In the early days, Ghibli’s animation was entirely hand-drawn. Each frame was carefully sketched and
photographed onto film—a true labour of love. But as technology evolved, so did animation. Ghibli
began to incorporate digital tools into its creative process, blending tradition with innovation.
For example, digital compositing software helped the studio layer characters, backgrounds, lighting,
and effects more smoothly. Asset management systems and databases made it easier to handle
large files and collaborate as a team. Thanks to IT, the studio could now edit scenes faster, track
changes easily, and render animations more efficiently.

Today, Ghibli’s artistic style is being recreated by creators worldwide using modern tools such as Adobe
Animate, Blender, and TVPaint. These programmes allow artists to blend 2D hand-drawn looks with
digital techniques such as motion capture, procedural animation, and even AI-assisted inbetweening.

But IT doesn’t just support animation—it drives creativity. Cloud computing allows artists to work
together from anywhere in the world. Machine learning can clean up line art, simulate natural
movement, and even upscale hand-drawn images, helping artists work faster without losing quality.
Ghibli’s recent film, Earwig and the Witch, shows the studio experimenting with 3D animation while
staying true to its signature style. It’s a great example of how Ghibli is open to new formats powered by
IT, without losing its artistic soul.
Today’s animation world is a blend of creativity and coding. Ghibli’s legacy lives on not just in movie
theatres, but also in digital tools and software—from algorithms that mimic paintbrushes to apps that
generate animated skies. Thanks to IT, the magic of Ghibli is no longer confined to a single studio in
Japan—it is alive in every digital artist who dreams of telling a beautiful story.
