Okay, this is the best thing I’ve ever seen Siri do: multiply one trillion to the tenth power to lay down a hypnotic background beat for a bunch of cool kids to rap to.
The original video was uploaded by Robin Babu, who asked his iPhone’s digital assistant to do some math that resulted in a seemingly endless stream of zeros. It made for a killer bass beat that he and his friends used to lay down an awesome freestyle rap, with the third performer singing Endaro Mahunubhavulu, a classic work of Carnatic music.
Seriously, check it out for yourself. This is so good. (Sorry for the lousy embed; while the video was originally on YouTube, it has since been pulled.)
