Indonesia’s digital economy, projected to reach 366 billion US dollars by 2030, is expected to grow exponentially. This growth hinges significantly on the strategic utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) technology across industries.
However, to ensure that AI benefits society without causing harm, more robust regulatory frameworks governing its ethical and responsible use are urgently needed.
This topic took center stage at a public discussion, “The Need to Develop Artificial Intelligence Governance Regulations,” hosted at the UGM Senate Hall on Friday (Mar. 8).
Nezar Patria, the Deputy Minister of Communication and Information Technology, enthusiastically endorses research and studies probing the ethical dimensions of deploying artificial intelligence (AI) in industrial and educational domains.
This resonates with the minister’s recently introduced policy, unveiling ethical guidelines for AI application in the public sector, a strategic move to ensure AI’s secure and productive use.
Speaking during the seminar titled “Recent Developments in Artificial Intelligence: Ethical Considerations and Global Experience Exploration,” held at the Notonagoro Room, UGM Faculty of Philosophy, on Wednesday (Dec. 27), Patria expressed strong support for university-led activities delving into the latest advancements in AI.
