IBM Drives Indonesia's Digital Economy Transformation with Agentic AI

JAKARTA - In the IBM AI Leadership Exchange, General Manager of IBM Asia Pacific, Hans Dekkers revealed that the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in Indonesia is very large.

According to him, AI technology, especially Agentic AI can be a driving force for the next growth phase by helping organizations work smarter, innovate faster, and grow responsibly.

"If used properly, AI can become a driving force for national development through the birth of new industries, the creation of high-value-added jobs, and the acceleration of Indonesia's transformation towards a resilient and digital-first economy," Hans said on Thursday, June 11 in Jakarta.

As part of its commitment to delivering AI solutions that have a real impact on business, IBM also introduced IBM Bob, an Agentic AI-based development platform designed specifically for enterprise teams.

Unlike various AI-based coding devices for general use, IBM Bob is able to coordinate various AI models and automatically direct each task to the most appropriate model based on cost, performance, and security requirements.

IBM Bob supports the entire software development cycle, from design, code creation, testing, security, to implementation.

In addition, the technology giant also introduced IBM Sovereign Core, the latest software platform that helps companies and government agencies implement a holistic approach to digital sovereignty, with governance, compliance, and control aspects that are integrated from the start.

This solution combines infrastructure management, identity, security, compliance, and AI operations in a single integrated deployment model.

Thus, organizations can expand the use of AI while maintaining control over operations, data, and compliance as needed.

IBM is committed to continue to bring its global expertise in AI, hybrid cloud, cybersecurity, and quantum computing to help build a secure and resilient digital foundation, which will be the foundation for a new era of innovation, growth, and digital leadership in Indonesia.
