Minister of Communication and Digital: Algorithms Cannot Eliminate Indonesia's Diversity
Published
The Minister of Communication and Digital (Menkomdigi) stated that algorithms cannot eliminate Indonesia's diversity. This statement was reported by ANTARA News Kaltara. According to him, Indonesian society has many differences, ranging from culture and language to ways of seeing the world.
In his view, technology should reflect that diversity. Technology must not cause people to simply follow a uniform pattern of information. Algorithms are systems that determine what content appears on users' screens. Therefore, these systems have a major influence on the information people see every day.
The statement has drawn attention because the use of social media and digital platforms is increasingly widespread in Indonesia. Many citizens now get news and entertainment through digital services. Therefore, how algorithms work is also important for the public to pay attention to.
Nevertheless, this report only contains part of the minister's statement. More complete information about the steps or policies that will be taken is not yet available in this source. Readers can follow further developments from official news sources.
