Invite AI to compose and record an entire album? As well as being responsible for cover concepts, press images and music videos? Most musicians would gag at the mere thought.

The journey in this highly topical film was certainly not without challenges, among other things, thousands of reference songs had to be entered. But considering that YACHT is an abbreviation for Young Americans Challenging High Technology, it was only for these LA hipsters, who were long at reputable DFA Records, to live up to the name.
