AI Governance in Indonesia: Navigating Promises and Risks

To foster knowledge-sharing, discussion, and collaboration in understanding the digital economy, TFGI Brownbag offers a platform for exploring research, gathering feedback, and engaging diverse perspectives.

In this Brownbag session, Florida Andriana, Co-Founder and Chief of Growth at Think Policy, will share her insights on the evolving landscape of AI policy in Indonesia. Drawing from Think Policy’s publication 10-Year Digital Transformation: Towards a Meaningful Digital Transformation and cross-sectoral engagements with government, civil society, and the private sector, her presentation will explore how Indonesia can strike a balance between innovation, regulation, and the public interest.

This session will highlight key concerns and aspirations emerging from a diverse range of stakeholders, including:

  • Data governance and privacy concerns in the age of AI
  • The role of AI in enhancing public service delivery
  • Ethical considerations surrounding the use of AI technologies
  • The importance of grounding AI governance in local cultural and institutional contexts

Building on this work, the presentation will emphasise the need for cross-sector collaboration and proactive policymaking to ensure that AI serves as a tool for social good. Attendees will gain a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities in crafting effective AI governance, and how Indonesia is working to chart its own path in a rapidly evolving global landscape.
