This study aims to analyze the impact of Firm Created Content (FCC) and User Generated Content (UGC) on brand equity and purchase intention of Grab-and-Go coffee brand. In today's digital era, content generated by both companies and users plays a critical role in shaping consumer perceptions of brands.

The results of the study indicate that both FCC and UGC have a significant impact on brand equity. High-quality FCC can enhance brand awareness, perceived quality, and consumer loyalty. On the other hand, positive UGC can strengthen the emotional connection between consumers and the brand, as well as increase consumer trust.

This study aims to assess how Indonesia's Government Office of Kediri District responds to integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in improving service frequency and public satisfaction. An explanatory quantitative approach was adopted to investigate the causal relationship between AI adoption and the two dependent variables—service frequency and public satisfaction—through multiple linear regression analysis, utilizing data from a sample of 15 districts between 2018 and 2023.
