The development of digital technology has brought about major changes in the dynamics of Indonesian culture. One of the most prominent social media platforms is TikTok, which offers a creative space for its users to promote local arts, traditions, languages, and cultural heritage. This study aims to analyze the impact of TikTok on Indonesian culture, both positively and negatively. Positively, TikTok helps preserve local culture through short videos featuring traditional dances, culinary specialties, and the use of regional languages. This platform also supports the introduction of Indonesian culture to a global audience, increasing awareness of the younger generation about the importance of local culture.

Through a qualitative approach with literature studies, this study found that TikTok has great potential as a tool for cultural preservation if used wisely. In conclusion, collaboration is needed between content creators, the community, and the government to maintain a balance between preserving local culture and digital modernity.

This study reveals the potential of ChatGPT in supporting students' mathematics learning. However, the study's results also show challenges in utilising ChatGPT, such as inconsistent answer quality and potential student dependence on technology. This indicates the need for a more holistic approach to integrating ChatGPT into the learning process. This study aimed to analyse ChatGPT's ability to answer quantitative knowledge and mathematical reasoning questions, assess students' prompting abilities with ChatGPT, evaluate the use of ChatGPT, and measure the extent to which students' mathematical, creative and critical abilities have increased. This study uses an Embedded Design type of Mixed Method approach. The population in this study were all high school students who took the Tridaya Tutoring Program 2024/2025. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, and the sample selected was all 20 students from class XII of Tridaya Tutoring High School. The research instruments used were written tests, namely multiple-choice questions and documentation studies of screenshots of ChatGPT answer results. The study results showed that the t value for measuring creative and critical abilities was 6.691 and 7.151. It was found that there was a significant difference between the test scores obtained before and after the treatment. This shows that the instructions given to students can improve their test scores. ChatGPT can help students in learning as a virtual tutor. However, it should also be noted that not all questions can be answered. Some even have different answers. This makes students dissatisfied with the results obtained. This is where students are trained in critical thinking why this can happen. In addition, the student's prompting technique for ChatGPT is also considered. There is a need for creativity in prompting so students can further explore the answers from ChatGPT. Although they can answer any question, guidance from the teacher and independent verification are needed regarding the answers given by ChatGPT so that the desired answer is by expectations.

Sharia fintech is a technology-based financial solution that integrates sharia principles, such as the prohibition of usury, gharar, and maisir. The use of sharia fintech in Indonesia is growing, especially in supporting micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Sunanti Electronics Store, which serves the majority of Muslim consumers, has the potential to utilize sharia fintech to increase its sales. This study aims to analyze the strategy of implementing sharia fintech in increasing sales at Sunanti Electronics Store. The method used is a descriptive-analytical approach with literature reviews and secondary data. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of sharia fintech through the murabahah financing scheme, sharia e-wallet, and sharia crowdfunding can increase customer loyalty, expand market reach, and create operational efficiency. However, the challenges faced include the lack of sharia financial literacy and limited digital infrastructure. For this reason, cooperation with sharia fintech providers and education for consumers are needed so that this implementation can run optimally. Sharia fintech is not only a transaction tool, but also an effective business strategy to increase competitiveness and business growth based on Islamic values.
