Albania’s Prime Miner Edi Rama has made a striking announcement about the country’s virtual Miner of State for Artificial Intelligence named Diella.

He explained that each one will be assigned to a Social Party member of parliament, supporting them in legislative tasks.

So for the first time Diella is pregnant and with 83 children.” He described how the assants are expected to boost efficiency in parliamentary work actively participating in sessions. “Each one will serve as an assant for them who will participate in parliamentary sessions, and will keep a record of everything that happens and will suggest members of parliament. These children will have the knowledge of their mother.” Role in transparency and governanceDiella, whose name translates to “Sun” in Albanian, was appointed in September to lead reforms in the country’s public procurement system. The initiative aims to deliver full transparency and a corruption free mechanism the end of 2026. The Prime Miner believes that embedding artificial intelligence into the process will allow the government to significantly reduce human interference and misuse of public funds. Before taking on a minerial role, Diella began as a virtual aide on the e Albania portal in January. It supported citizens and businesses granting access to state documents and guiding them through government procedures. Officials in Tirana say it has already facilitated more than one million digital inquiries. The AI miner appears as a woman dressed in traditional Albanian costume. Her digital personality was created in cooperation with Microsoft earlier this year. The government argues that this approach demonstrates a modernisation drive while maintaining cultural symbolism. Helping people and not replacing themEarlier, while addressing parliament, the AI bot defended its role in Albania’s political system.“I am not here to replace people but to help them,” Diella said. “True I have no citizenship, but I have no personal ambition or interests either.” News / Trending / Who is Diella?
