Albania’s Prime Minister, Edi Rama, has shocked the world by announcing that the country’s AI-generated minister, Diella, is “pregnant”! But don’t worry—it’s not sci-fi. The announcement is symbolic, referring to the creation of 83 new AI assistants, one for each Socialist Party MP. These digital “children” will help record parliamentary proceedings, summarize debates, and brief lawmakers on discussions they miss. So, who is Diella? Her name means “Sun,” and she was developed in partnership with Microsoft to bring full transparency to Albania’s public procurement system. Starting as a virtual assistant on the e-Albania platform, Diella helped deliver over 36,600 digital documents before being promoted to AI Minister—a world first! Now, Diella oversees public tenders and ensures clean governance as part of Albania’s ambitious anti-corruption drive and EU membership goals for 2030. But her appointment has sparked huge debate—can a non-human really be a minister? Supporters hail her as a leap toward digital democracy, while critics call it unconstitutional. Whatever side you’re on, Diella is redefining what government could look like in the AI age—and raising an exciting question: Could India be next? Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE & LIKE
