The Ministry of Communication and Digital believes that the establishment of an artificial intelligence endowment fund could be a driving force in accelerating the development of national AI infrastructure.
The Director of Artificial Intelligence and New Technology Ecosystem at the Ministry of Communication and Digital Technology, Aju Widyasari, stated that infrastructure development is the foundation for Indonesia's efforts to realize AI sovereignty.
"If we're talking about infrastructure, to become a sovereign AI , the first step is what we can prepare to support this GPU-based infrastructure with sufficient support," Aju said in a discussion.
According to him, one form of support could be an incentive scheme or funding to expand the use of green energy for AI data center operations.
Aju assessed that the Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency could play a role in supporting this funding through investment collaboration involving domestic and international investors.
