SDG 4: Pendidikan Berkualitas
The Faculty of Philosophy at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) invited one of its alumni, M. Ganiswara Afif Kharisma, to share insights into the entrepreneurial world with students. During an event titled Entrepreneurship Sharing Session held on Friday (22/3) at Archipelago Café, Afif recounted his experiences in learning about entrepreneurship and starting a business at a young age.
Afif shared that his interest in becoming an entrepreneur emerged during his high school years. He began experimenting with selling goods to earn extra pocket money. However, it wasn’t until his time at UGM that he delved deeper into the world of entrepreneurship. Although he did not major in a business-related field, he gained significant knowledge through student programs and networks he built on campus.
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).
