Head of the office, Jeri Agus Yudianto, said here on Monday that the abuse of AI that leads to online crimes can happen on any digital platform.
"AI is designed to efficiently and quickly help complex assignments of manufacturing, banking, and governmental affairs," he explained.
According to him, people, as digital platform users, sometimes see pictures or visuals created by AI that can lead to conflict, especially during a political year.
"Therefore, we ask people to confirm the visual media or others that can trigger conflicts," he said.
He noted that currently, AI is being abused to create and distribute deep fakes to produce fake news, hence, he urged people to be smarter in selecting and trusting news.
He added that the use of AI can support business performance and administrative affairs.
"But we must confirm (information) presented on any digital platform," he said.
Earlier, a visual media created by AI went viral, which had the potential to divide society, especially ahead of the regional head elections on November 27, 2024.
