Abstract
Artificial intelligence governance has become a diplomatic issue because technological development, data flows, and regulatory decisions increasingly connect domestic interests with international cooperation. This article examines Indonesia’s opportunities and constraints in engaging with ASEAN artificial intelligence governance during 2023–2025. It employs a qualitative documentary approach supported by a targeted narrative review of national and international scholarship. The analysis distinguishes documented institutional developments from interpretations of diplomatic opportunities and policy recommendations. The findings indicate that ASEAN’s voluntary governance instruments provide a shared reference for cooperation while preserving considerable national discretion. Indonesia’s domestic ethics guidance, engagement with UNESCO’s readiness assessment, and public consultation on its national artificial intelligence roadmap provide relevant foundations for participation, but do not independently demonstrate decisive influence over regional negotiations. The article argues that diplomatic credibility depends on connecting normative commitments with domestic implementation capacity and concrete regional contributions. It proposes that Indonesia prioritize joint evaluation resources, meaningful stakeholder participation, coordinated negotiating positions, and measurable capacity-building cooperation. Regional leadership should therefore be assessed through traceable contributions and public benefits rather than diplomatic visibility alone. The study contributes an analytical framework linking normative alignment, institutional capacity, and diplomatic instruments while acknowledging the limitations of publicly available documentary evidence.
