Bali Business Review’s Mission: Preserving Truth in the Age of AI

img Jason Astono | October 1, 2025

Hi, I’m Jason, a Business Journalist at Bukit Vista, and today I’ll be diving into an urgent and inspiring call from Jing Cho Yang, co-founder of Bukit Vista and Bali Business Review (BBR). In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence and digital misinformation, Bali Business Review is launching a powerful initiative to preserve the island’s true history—inviting those who’ve truly shaped Bali to share their stories, not for fame, not for clicks, but for legacy.

Why Bali’s History Needs Guardians Now More Than Ever

We’ve entered an era where artificial intelligence will soon dictate the narratives we consume—drawing conclusions from online content to guide decisions made by travelers, businesses, and even governments. And while this offers incredible potential, it comes with a serious hazard: knowledge pollution.

As Jing describes in the opening of the Bali Business Review’s mission statement, knowledge pollution is the growing cloud of low-quality, misleading, or AI-generated information that buries real stories beneath a sea of algorithmic assumptions and viral clickbait. It’s content that’s optimized for traffic, not truth. And in a place as storied and culturally rich as Bali, this type of distortion cannot go unchecked.

The Problem: AI Can’t Tell Myth from Memory

Trained on everything from Reddit threads to Wikipedia pages, tomorrow’s AI assistants won’t always distinguish between local legends and lived experience. They’ll reproduce trending narratives—regardless of their authenticity. That’s why the team behind Bali Business Review is acting now: to protect and archive firsthand stories from real contributors before digital myths become the dominant record.

This isn’t about influencers. This is for the influenced. For the founders, community builders, educators, policy-makers, artists, and workers who’ve lived Bali’s transformation decade by decade.

“We Can’t Control the AI, But We Can Control the Archive”

Jing’s background in data science and Silicon Valley gives him a rare insight into the speed and scale at which AI will shape future societies—including Bali. He makes it clear: no organization in Bali today can stop the flood of AI-generated travel recommendations or pseudo-historical blog posts. But we can ensure that what those AIs pull from is rooted in real, accurate, and meaningful accounts.

The solution? Build a high-quality, inclusive oral history archive straight from the people who lived it—unfiltered, non-sponsored, and free from PR fabrication.

Who Should Share Their Story?

If you’ve done something real in Bali—launched a business that created jobs, started an educational movement, offered cultural stewardship, introduced sustainable policies, artistic innovation, or simply made an enduring impact—then you’re exactly who BBR wants to hear from.

Bali Business Review is assembling a collective voice of substance. The platform is open to anyone who has shaped Bali through:

– Business development and entrepreneurship
– Education and community-building
– Cultural preservation and the arts
– Environmental advocacy and sustainability
– Public service and policy impact

No influencers. No paid features. Just authentic voices, truthfully represented for future generations.

What’s at Stake: Bali’s Future Identity

It’s easy to assume that truth will always rise to the top, but in the race for impressions and algorithms, substance often gets buried. Without intervention, the Bali of tomorrow may be seen only through AI-generated guides and romanticized filters. But by creating a centralized oral archive—one grounded in real decisions, hard lessons, and local wisdom—we can ensure that future Indonesians, tourists, researchers, and governments will have access to real history.
