Rickrolling in 4K is equally as amazing as it sounds

Rick Astley's 'Never Gonna Give You Up' is a mainstay among trolls and now a feat of AI interpolation.

In 1987 Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" was just a song – albeit, a popular song. Today, the same infectious tune from a young Canadian pop star has come to symbolize much, much more than a (now pretty corny) moment in musical history, especially if you've ever trolled, or have been trolled, by someone on the internet.

We're referring, of course, to the phenomenon Rickrolling.
