JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Communication and Digital Nezar Patria emphasized that young people should not only understand technology, but also formulate policies for the development of artificial intelligence (AI) in Indonesia.

"When you simulate a trial in parliament, you discuss the most important thing, public policy, public policy," Nezar said in an official broadcast quoted on Thursday, April 30.
