Indonesia is set to formalize two key AI regulations—a national AI Roadmap and AI Ethics guidelines—under a Presidential Regulation by early 2026. Led by the Ministry of Communication and Digital, the initiative aims to provide a cohesive framework for AI adoption across education, healthcare, finance, and digital public services. Experts highlight that regulation is essential to ensure legal clarity, protect citizens, and guide innovation without stifling it. Risk-based oversight will allow low-risk AI to flourish while high-risk applications face stricter monitoring.

The regulations will also clarify legal accountability for AI decisions, enforce interoperability and open standards, and promote domestic AI development. By aligning policies across ministries and fostering human capacity, AI literacy, and social readiness, Indonesia aims to create an ecosystem that safeguards digital sovereignty, encourages experimentation, and supports local innovation as the nation accelerates toward its 2026 AI goals.
