Generative AI models like ChatGPT have become a polarizing topic in recent times, with some practically replacing search engines with it, and others condemning the negative impacts of the technology on the environment and marginalized communities. The topic has heavily divided K-Pop spaces as well, with the recent rise in AI-based fan-generated content.
Amid this environment, a fourth-gen boy group member’s loud and unapologetic denouncement of AI has garnered him huge praise from netizens. The idol in question is Keeho from P1Harmony.
In a recent interaction with fans, Keeho talked about ChatGPT in response to a fan suggesting he look something up via the chatbot. The idol plainly stated, “Why use ChatGPT when you can just Google it?” He proceeded to emphasize that he had never used the chatbot before, citing how it negatively impacts the environment.
