K-pop boy band SEVENTEEN is back with their much-anticipated album – 17 is Right Here. The stacked album unleashes the group’s range with 33 tracks as they continue to showcase their growth as artists. In a press conference attended virtually by Filmfare, the members opened up about their album’s making as they unveiled the lead single MAESTRO.
During the press conference, Woozi shed light on the use of AI. When asked if he tried experimenting with AI, he said, “I have tried of course, because this is a technological development that we have to leverage, not just be dissatisfied with. It is something we have to use along the way. So I practised using AI and tried to look for the pros and cons.”
He added, “Technology is evolving rapidly and what can we do to keep our identity? This is what I always ponder. And I really love the music video. When we were working on it with the directors, we talked about the same thing – how we have to live with AI.”
Woozi also shared insights on MAESTRO saying, “Through MAESTRO, we wanted to show a new facet of ourselves. To go into detail about that, I first wanted to show people that we’re not being complacent. We want to show other new sides that we haven’t shown yet. We don’t want to be like ‘Oh, we’re old enough so let’s just go with the flow’. We want to tour other places, we have so much passion inside of us. So even if it is our tenth year since our debut. We want to show you that we’re always doing our best and finding something new for CARATs.”
