AI and Public Policy Process: Between Efficiency and Ethical Challenges
Get PDFThe presence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as one of today\u27s technological products has become a game changer in nearly every sector, reforming and transforming how we conduct our lives, including in the field of public policy with the efficiency it offers. However, the involvement of AI in this sector also brings about significant challenges, particularly ethical concerns. Using William Dunn\u27s Policy Cycle Framework, this study aims to analyze the potential role of AI in driving efficiency at each stage of the policy process. In addition, ethical concerns, as a major challenge, will also be addressed. This research adopts a qualitative approach by extracting data from a range of academic literature and policy reports. The findings suggest that if policymakers can optimize the various features offered by AI systems, AI has significant and crucial potential at every phase, from the agenda-setting stage, which aims to establish a priority scale for public agendas, to the evaluation stage to assess the outcomes of policy interventions. Nevertheless, ethical concerns remain an ongoing issue and a source of complexity and dilemma. Ultimately, this study contributes to providing a fresh perspective on the integration of AI in the public policy sector, demonstrating how its presence can align with the iterative and non-linear nature of the policy process, as well as address the fundamental ethical issues in its application
Hashtag Activism and Football Tragedy Commemoration: Social Network Analysis In the #100harikanjuruhan Hashtag on Twitter
Get PDFThis research explores the role of hashtag activism and the 100-day commemoration of the Kanjuruhan tragedy in shaping the structure and dynamics of social relationships on Twitter. The study utilizes social network analysis (SNA) to analyze the social network around the #100harikanjuruhan (100 Days of Kanjuruhan) hashtag and visualize the network model formed through centrality measurements to identify influential accounts in conversations related to the hashtag. The study found that the formed network structure indicates relatively distant actor distances with low connectivity and one-way ties, as well as centralized power with an insignificant distribution. Furthermore, In the social network formed, actors with high degree, betweenness, and eigenvector centralities do not necessarily have high closeness centrality with all other actors in the network. This shows that in a large network, actors with many connections and high levels of intermediation may not necessarily be able to reach all actors quickly, contributing to the limited resonance of this #100HariKanjuruhan movement on Twitter

WISE SOCIAL MEDIA USE: MAINTAINING PERSONAL IDENTITY AND NATIONALISM SPIRIT ABROAD
No full textIn today’s digital era, social media plays a central role in daily life, including for Indonesian migrant workers abroad. However, many of them lack sufficient understanding of the ethical implications of their online activities. Unintentionally, they may share content that reinforces negative stereotypes or harms their personal image and Indonesia’s reputation. This underscores the urgent need for digital literacy that promotes not only technical skills but also ethical awareness and national values. To address this, the program "Wise Use of Social Media: Maintaining Personal Identity and Nationalism Abroad" aims to educate Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia on ethical social media usage, build a sense of nationalism, and prevent the spread of harmful content. The program focuses not just on information delivery but also on changing participants’ attitudes and behaviors in digital spaces. Conducted in a one-day session, the program includes training on digital literacy, social media ethics, and nationalism, guided by students and experienced practitioners. Participant understanding is assessed through questionnaires at the end of the program. Expected outcomes include improved awareness of responsible online behavior, a decrease in negative posts, and strengthened nationalism reflected through digital engagement. Additionally, this initiative aligns with the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) policy by offering students hands-on learning opportunities. It also encourages the publication of academic research and the development of appropriate digital tools for migrant communities. Ultimately, this program aspires to empower migrant workers to become responsible digital citizens and foster a global online community that upholds and promotes Indonesian values
The battle of hashtag on Twitter: Unraveling the pioneers of influence in social media marketing
Get PDFThis research aims to identify Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in hashtag marketing campaigns on social media using Social Network Analysis (SNA) method. The study explores the social network formed in the campaign between #TimPakeSendok and #TimPakeTangan to identify influential users who play a significant role in the dissemination and reach of the campaign based on degree centrality, betweenness centrality, and eigenvector centrality analysis. The study finds that actors with many followers on Twitter tend to have high centrality levels, both in terms of degree centrality, betweenness centrality, and eigenvector centrality, indicating that they are actively connected to other actors in the network, act as effective intermediaries between other actors, and have meaningful connections with other influential actors in the network during this hashtag marketing campaign. However, the closeness centrality measurement indicates that actors with significant closeness centrality are those with fewer followers. Other findings show that sharing opinions and interacting with other users in the hashtag campaign create a sense of togetherness and affinity within groups with similar interests
