Indonesia prepares presidential regulations to guide AI adoption in government

One covers a 2026–2029 National AI Roadmap. The other, described separately, addresses AI ethics. The article's headline states that Indonesia is preparing presidential regulations to guide AI adoption in government.

Under the planned rules, government agencies will identify AI risks, protect data, ensure accountability and maintain human oversight. The excerpt places particular emphasis on AI used in public services that can affect people's rights. The two regulations are described as separate instruments, one tied to a four-year roadmap running from 2026 to 2029 and one concerned with ethics. The excerpt does not state when either regulation will be issued, which agencies will be covered, or what enforcement or penalties they would carry.

It sets out the requirements in general terms — risk identification, data protection, accountability and human oversight — and states that these apply particularly when AI is used in public services that can affect people's rights. The report does not indicate how the roadmap and the ethics regulation relate to one another, how compliance would be measured, or what budget or staffing accompanies the plan.
