The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has raised significant concerns regarding the protection of human rights, particularly in relation to privacy, non-discrimination, accountability, and legal certainty. This study examines regulatory gaps in Indonesia’s AI governance from a human rights perspective and proposes regulatory recommendations through a comparative analysis of legal frameworks in the European Union (EU), China, and the United States (U.S.).
