Komdigi Strengthens Artificial Intelligence, Targets Cheaper Internet and Prepares Digital Talent

Published 2026-11-01

The Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi) has announced it will strengthen the development of artificial intelligence (AI) in Indonesia. According to a report by CNBC Indonesia, this move has two main targets: making internet services cheaper and preparing the digital talent needed in the future.

The first target is to lower the cost of internet access. Affordable internet access is considered important so that more people, including those in areas that have been difficult to reach, can make use of digital technology. With lower prices, it is hoped that the use of AI-based services can also become more widespread.

The second target is to prepare human resources in the digital field. The development of AI requires a workforce with technological skills, such as programming, data analysis, and intelligent systems management. For this reason, the government wants to ensure that Indonesia's young generation has the abilities that match the needs of the digital industry.

So far, more detailed information about the programs and budgets to be implemented has not been fully disclosed in the news source. The public can continue to follow the development of this policy through official announcements from Komdigi and reports from trusted media.
