This study examines residential neighborhoods in the Jabodetabek cities through a household survey that measures walking times to 42 types of…

Preserving humor effects that arise from flouting conversational principles in culturespecific texts presents specific difficulties when translating regional languages deeply rooted in linguistic and cultural variation. This type of humor depends on complex linguistic, cultural, and situational contexts, resulting in difficulty in replicating the same effect in the target language. This study investigates humor translation strategies and translation quality of two advanced AI language models, i.e., ChatGPT 4.0 and Gemini 2.5, in rendering culture-specific humor that deliberately violates…

In virtual idol fandoms, fans often follow shared norms that shape how they interact with one another. This research draws on fandom, norms, and negotiation theories to explore how such norms emerge and are negotiated within the Plli fandom on social media X, focusing on the figure of “Terra Plave” as the controlling presence behind Plave’s virtual idol avatar.

Using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods approach, an online survey (n=553) was conducted with respondents aged 20 to 50 in 10 Indonesian cities. Participants evaluated four case studies—advertisement, book cover,…

This study proposes a conceptual-analytical framework for human-centric AI integration in Industry 5.0 by employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and Applied Framework Analysis (AFA). A structured PRISMA-based screening process was applied to ensure transparency in identifying and selecting 48 scholarly sources that inform the framework. The review reveals three foundational dimensions enabling responsible AI adoption: ethical governance grounded in transparency and accountability, inclusive innovation addressing bias and digital inequality, and futureready human capital oriented…

The development of the science techno park (STP) in Indonesia aims to facilitate innovation-based industrial growth. Concurrently, the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) is committed to realizing an entrepreneurial university by leveraging research results through the ITB-STP, also known as the ITB Innovation Park (IIP). The IIP acts as an innovation center that connects research with market needs and functions as an innovation commercialization accelerator. Research using the Multi-Level Perspective Framework indicates policy shifts in STP development during the 2015– 2019 and 2020–2024…
