Yogyakarta, June 27 -- The Indonesian government is collaborating with civil society organizations (CSOs) to develop a tool to detect AI-generated deepfake content.

Bonifasius Wahyu Pudjianto, head of the Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM) at the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs, shared the initiative on Friday.

He said the effort aims to address the growing misuse of artificial intelligence (AI), which could potentially harm the public.

"They (CSOs) have created a tool that will be launched soon," Pudjianto said, noting that one of the contributors is the Indonesian Anti-Defamation Society (Mafindo).

He explained that the tool will allow users to verify not just text, but also video, images, and audio content.
