As information, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has several models that are used in real-world applications such as Virtual Assistant, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, and Computer Vision. 

Anto Satriyo Nugroho as Head of Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security BRIN, Anto Satriyo Nugroho in the Insight Interview Program through YouTube VIVA on last June, said that AI is only used for daily life. 

"AI helps human tasks, many jobs are helped by AI, for example medicine, but AI will not replace doctors. It's not easy for the knowledge and experience that doctors have to be translated into formulations that are translated by computers," Nugroho explained. 

"AI is helpful if the work is repetitive and does not require innovation or ideas. We have to be able to distinguish which ones can be replaced by AI and which ones cannot be replaced by AI," he disclosed.
