Abstract

The focus of this article is the potential of deep learning as a solution to overcome the challenges of 21st-century education in Indonesia, particularly in developing critical thinking skills, creativity, communication, and collaboration. The main question discussed is how deep learning can be effectively implemented in the national education system by addressing infrastructure challenges, teachers' digital literacy, and unequal access to education. This study employs a qualitative approach using the library research method. The data consist of secondary sources such as books, scientific journals, policy reports, and relevant official documents. The findings indicate that deep learning holds great potential for improving the quality of education in Indonesia, despite facing challenges such as limited infrastructure, teacher readiness, and insufficiently supportive education policies. The article recommends strategies including continuous teacher training, equitable distribution of technological infrastructure, and the development of contextual education policies as essential steps to maximize the application of deep learning in achieving the Golden Indonesia 2045 vision.
