AISII.id – Strategic Positioning
Indonesia’s AI Safety Institute in the Global Landscape
The AI Safety Institute Indonesia (AISII), under KORIKA, is designed not as a replica of existing AI safety institutes,
but as a context-aware, globally connected, and development-oriented AI safety authority.
AISII aligns with the scientific foundations of the International AI Safety Report, while addressing the realities of
emerging economies and the Global South.
Global Reference Points
- UK AI Safety Institute → frontier model evaluation & red-teaming
- US AI Safety Institute → standards, measurement science, and risk frameworks
- OECD → global AI policy coordination
- UNESCO → ethics and governance principles
AISII Differentiation

- Recognizes data ecosystems as shared infrastructure
- Promotes trusted, interoperable, and sovereign datasets
Positioning: From model-centric safety → to ecosystem safety
3. Policy–Science Translation Engine
- Converts technical evaluation into implementable regulation
- Supports ministries with evidence-based decision tools
Positioning: From research output → to policy execution
4. Cultural and Linguistic Context as Safety Variable
- Evaluates AI behavior in Bahasa Indonesia and local languages
- Addresses risks of bias, hallucination, and misalignment in local context
Positioning: From generic models → to culturally aware safety
5. Balanced Innovation–Safety Mandate
