Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama has made a bold move, appointing an AI-generated “minister” to his cabinet. Named "Diella", or "sun" in Albanian, the virtual entity is tasked with tackling corruption and promoting transparency in public procurement. Rama stated that the bot will ensure public tenders are "100% free of corruption," a significant issue that has plagued the country's bid for EU membership. Diella, which previously served as a virtual assistant for government services, is seen as a way to "leapfrog" traditional governance. However, the appointment has drawn criticism from opposition parties who question its constitutionality.

Doesn't really make sense to me, the AI minister will only function based on how it was programmed, which means it's functionality would be limited to some degree.

Albania has decided to take a unique step by appointing Diella, who is an AI, as a minister. This is not a joke, it is like trying to cure a disease with a new medicine. Diella is given the responsibility of fighting corruption and ensuring that government tenders are clean as cotton. The idea is radical because AI is not greedy or corrupt, but it also raises questions about the constitution and its legitimacy. Opponents are shouting but Rama says it is a way to bypass the restrictions of the old regime. The world is changing and it is not surprising that tomorrow we will have an AI as president.
