JAKARTA - In today's state-of-the-art technological era, Deputy Minister of Communication and Information, Nezar Patria, encourages all professions to adapt to artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

Nevertheless, Nezar still emphasized that he always prioritizes minimizing risks and maximizing the benefits of this technology.

"Wherever technology is human creation, and therefore humans should not be defeated by technology, so we adapt, we control, we minimize the risk, increase the benefits," Nezar said in his official broadcast quoted by VOI Tuesday, February 20.

The Deputy Minister of Communication and Information also mentioned that this AI technology is able to help almost all types of jobs, such as in the field of journalism with robotic journalism.

In addition, for workers dealing with social media, Nezar argues that AI can distribute content aimed at specific user targets.

"We know ChatGPT now, his intelligence is getting better and better, and he is almost similar to the ability of humans to create one narrative or one essay or one story, and can even make news," he said further.

However, he stated that this artificial intelligence has various weaknesses, one of which is AI often produces content that is not true or accurate.

Therefore, Deputy Minister Nezar Patria emphasized that human roles are still needed in making decisions about the content to be published.

The Deputy Minister of Communication and Information also invited all press personnel to formulate guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence in the world of journalism for better journalism in the future.
