Have you ever listened to lofi hiphop when you need to study, focus, or relax? Over the past 3 years, lofi stations like ChilledCow/Lofi Girl have grown a community based on that premise. In this video, Sabrina explores why lofi has become the poster child for study music and if it even works. She also tries to teach a machine to generate lofi music and... it wasn't great.

Welcome to the joke under the fold! This is a genuinely terrible one. I'm sorry.
