‘I’m not here to replace people’: Albania’s AI minister speaks to parliament
Albania’s new AI-generated minister addressed parliament for the first time on Thursday, defending its role as “not here to replace people, but to help them”.
The world’s first AI government minister was appointed last week by Albania’s Prime Minister Edi Rama.
“Some have called me ‘unconstitutional’ because I am not a human being,” the AI — dubbed Diella, or “sun” in Albanian — told parliament in a video, appearing as a woman dressed in a traditional Albanian costume.
