Albania’s Prime Minister Edi Rama on Thursday announced the addition of the minister to his government.
"Diella is the first [government] member who is not physically present, but virtually created by artificial intelligence," Rama said as quoted by Euro News.
Diella will be entrusted with all decisions on public tenders, making them "100 per cent corruption-free,” he said.
Corruption remains a major issue in the country.
As per Transparency International’s corruption index website, the country ranked 80th among 180 nations in the list.
