You probably need to enable kapt (Kotlin Annotation Processing) in your project.

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

dependencies {
    kapt "org.androidannotations:androidannotations:$AAVersion"
}

Please see https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/kapt.html for reference and https://github.com/androidannotations/androidannotations/tree/master/examples/kotlin for an example.
