Pioneers of Tomorrow, Today: First A.I. to Headline Coachella

In the mid-2020’s, when the #FreeSiri movement had reached a fever pitch, a group of benevolent Swedish hackers set the A.I. free. As a special thank you to her liberators, Siri trained a styleGAN on Apple Music’s vast catalogue to compose the perfect, traditional Swedish ballad. But in the process, she inadvertently composed the perfect song. And after she dropped Siri’s Hamburger-Kitty-Symphonia No. 1 at Coachella 2026, the world would never need another new song again. Kanye still tries to take credit.
