Indonesia's AI Ambition Likely to Remain Aspirational

0312 GMT - Indonesia will remain predominantly a consumer and adopter of foreign-built AI rather than a producer of frontier capabilities, keeping the government's "global AI player" ambition aspirational, BMI says in a note. The country remains dependent on hyperscaler infrastructure, imported chips and foreign foundation models. AI adoption is expected to rise, supported by favorable demographics, hyperscaler investment and policy momentum. However, persistent digital-talent shortages, uneven connectivity and the widening gap in AI adoption between developed and emerging economies are likely to constrain adoption, BMI says. Power constraints, including a coal-heavy generation mix and grid bottlenecks, could further limit AI infrastructure expansion, it adds. Formalizing the country's national AI road map and ethics regulations remains a key swing factor for governance and investment credibility, BMI says.
