Albania's AI Minister 'Diella' Is 'Pregnant': Palki Sharma on PM Edi Rama's 83 Digital Aides Plan

In this special report, Firstpost Managing Editor Palki Sharma Upadhyay details a ‘bizarre’ yet significant announcement from Albania. Prime Minister Edi Rama has declared that the country’s AI-generated minister, Diella (referred to as Dela/DLR in the transcript), is ‘pregnant’ with 83 digital assistants. These AI ‘children’ will serve as personal aides to every Socialist Party MP, recording parliamentary proceedings and briefing lawmakers on missed discussions. Sharma explains that Diella, developed with Microsoft, was elevated to a cabinet-level role to ensure transparency in public procurement. The report explores whether such AI-driven governance could be replicated in India.
