To explain AI in a simple way, Usman makes an analogy with AI as humans. Humans get data from various sensors, namely the five senses, in their bodies. Furthermore, the data will be sent to the brain to be studied. Today, there is a huge amount of digital data known as Big Data. The digital data is then processed and categorized by an “artificial brain” called machine learning and deep learning. Later, the categorization produces conclusions that can make the machine take a decision or action. “Artificial intelligence is a series, starting from obtaining, processing, collecting data, to drawing conclusions,” Usman explained. read more

The importance of water in a human’s life is equal to that of food. In this regard, both resources are important to fulfill human’s biological need, economical commodity, or cultural strength.  The difference is that food is decentralized, locally grown, and is a part of the individual’s initiative. Meanwhile, water is organized by big bureaucrats, technical control, action and collective intervention in a system of centralized decision making.  read more
