denFarm, a leading B2B food-service startup, demonstrated great enthusiasm for its participation in the prestigious "World AI Show" held at The Langham, Jakarta, on Wednesday, June 7. Christophe Hubert, Vice President of Engineering at EdenFarm, had the privilege of sharing invaluable insights during a panel discussion focused on the theme Digital Transformation and Artificial Intelligence: Is Your Organization Ready? alongside tech seniors Juan Kanggrawan, Head of Product, Data, Tribe at the National Ministry & Smart Cities; Dr. Sankaraiah Sreeramula, Chief Data Scientist APP Sinarmas; Shitalkumar R. Sukhdeve, Senior Data Scientist PT Smartfren Telecom; and Antonius Tan, Chief Digital Business Officer at Sequis Life.

In the panel discussion, Christophe emphasized the crucial understanding of the advantages derived from integrating artificial intelligence (AI) within an organization. He emphasized that the implementation of AI should not be driven solely by trends, but rather by the goal of enhancing efficiency and achieving improved forecasting. "We don't use AI just to be trendy, but we use AI to improve efficiency, do better forecasting so that it has a positive impact on farming partners in optimizing planting time and getting maximum yields to sell it to customers," he mentioned. This, in turn, positively impacts farming partners by optimizing planting schedules and maximizing yields for sale to customers. Christophe underscored the practical benefits of AI adoption, demonstrating EdenFarm's commitment to leveraging this technology to drive tangible outcomes for all stakeholders involved.

Dr. Ilham Akbar Habibie, Head of the Implementation Team of the National Information and Communications Technology Council (Wantiknas), and Dr. Rudy Salahuddin, Deputy Minister of Digital Economy, Manpower and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) at the Office of the Coordinating Economic Minister, inaugurated a series of events at the World AI Show in Jakarta. During his opening remarks, Dr. Rudy Salahuddin highlighted the rapid growth of investment trends in the digital economy sector, positioning Indonesia as the second-highest recipient of investments after Singapore, based on first-quarter data for 2022. Furthermore, he noted that agritech as an industry ranked third in terms of the highest number of funding transactions.

Speaking specifically about the agritech industry, Dr. Salahuddin emphasized the potential of AI technology to optimize agricultural operations. AI-powered systems offer valuable insights into crop management, soil analysis and weather forecasting. By leveraging these capabilities, farmers can make informed decisions regarding irrigation, fertilization and pest control, leading to increased agricultural yields and reduced operational costs.

As information sources continue to evolve at an accelerated pace, the presence of AI technology in Indonesia has become increasingly familiar. Recognizing the significant potential of AI in advancing the Indonesian economic industry, Trescon, a renowned business services consulting company, organized a series of World AI Show events across multiple countries, with Jakarta being one of the chosen destinations. This event aimed to capitalize on the current trend of AI technology, providing a valuable opportunity to foster growth and innovation within Indonesia's economic landscape.

The World AI Show serves as a valuable platform for key stakeholders, including CIOs, CEOs, CTOs, Heads of AI Departments and experienced AI practitioners, to convene and engage in a range of panel discussions. These discussions revolve around the unique challenges that AI technology has encountered, particularly within the economic industry during the pandemic. This event, featuring esteemed speakers and accomplished practitioners from the AI industry, extends until Thursday (8/6), offering a comprehensive exploration of the latest developments and insights within the field.
