Dialogue

This dialogue is fictional and based on the article.

Chako: Hey Log, I heard Albania has appointed an AI minister! Isn’t that amazing?
Log: Yeah, it’s quite a big deal since there’s no precedent for an AI taking on a ministerial role. It’s especially interesting that it’s being introduced as a measure against corruption.
Chako: A measure against corruption, huh? It makes sense that an AI could supervise fairly!
Navi: Since AI makes decisions based on data, it can execute tasks without being influenced by emotions.
Log: Plus, the fact that the AI minister aims for a “corruption-free country” really shows Albania’s determination.
Chako: It feels like the future! Do you think other countries will follow suit?

Admin’s Note

The establishment of an AI minister in Albania is a very new initiative, and it is expected to enhance public transparency. I was particularly impressed by Navi’s explanation during the conversation between Chako and Log, where he mentioned that AI can carry out its tasks without being influenced by emotions. As AI technology continues to evolve, there is a possibility that similar initiatives will spread to other countries in the future. I also felt that we need to reflect on the role and impact of AI.
