UI Academic: Indonesia's Digital Transformation Must Focus on Creative Economy Impact
An academic from the University of Indonesia (UI) recently attended the World Artificial Intelligence (AI) Forum held in Moscow. During the event, they highlighted Indonesia's achievements in building the creative economy sector through the utilization of digital technology.
According to the academic, a country's success in digital transformation cannot be measured solely by the number of applications or artificial intelligence models created. Technological innovation is merely one part of the larger process of national economic development.
They emphasized that the tangible impact on society and the growth of the creative economy is far more important than the sophistication of the technology itself. An ideal digital transformation must be able to provide added value for creative industry players in Indonesia.
Furthermore, the discussion at this international forum serves as a reminder for Indonesia to continuously evaluate its digitalization strategy. The main focus moving forward is to ensure that the benefits of technological progress can be felt widely by all levels of society.
In conclusion, Indonesia is expected not only to be a user of technology but also to be capable of creating a digital ecosystem that supports economic independence. This step is key to ensuring that Indonesia remains competitive amidst the increasingly rapid development of global technology.
