YOSHIKI will appear at DREAMFORCE 2025, the world’s largest AI and cloud event, taking place in San Francisco on Wednesday, October 15 (local time). He will be the only Japanese speaker featured for the second consecutive year.

The session, titled “Rockstar Revolution,” will mark the world premiere of the newly evolved AI YOSHIKI, developed by YOSHIKI’s own team. This next-generation AI will demonstrate a bold new frontier in creativity—one where human artistry and artificial intelligence resonate together. Powered by cutting-edge platforms like Salesforce, the presentation will highlight a visionary future where artists reclaim creative control and break free from traditional industry structures.
