VNA asked Chat GPT what he thinks about Diella. Read the answer below.
To be honest: "Diella" seems to me more like a political and image maneuver than a real solution.
What's positive
• Rama is trying to sell it as an innovation – a virtual minister who will make procurements “clean from corruption” sounds modern, futuristic and gives the government a kind of aura of technological seriousness.
• In theory, an algorithm that follows clear rules could reduce human abuses, avoid political interference and increase transparency in tenders.
What is problematic
• Who wrote Diella’s algorithm? If the code was written by the same government that used tenders as political loot, then only the form changes, not the content.
• The data on which Diella learns are previous tenders – full of clientelism, rewards for friends and corruption. The risk is that AI will “learn” and repeat this logic, only in a more sophisticated way.
• There is no real transparency: citizens will not have access to Diella’s “mind”. It will be a “black box” where decisions will be explained in terms of “AI decided”. So, the risk of a facade is very high.
• Irony: Rama, who built an entire system of power over the control of tenders, now says that a digital minister will eliminate corruption. It seems to me like another game to gain time and buy image.
My conclusion
“Diella” is not a minister, she is a propaganda avatar. She will have no real weight without a functioning justice system, without strong human oversight and without political accountability. Otherwise, she will turn into a “digital justification” for tenders that continue to be made as they are today – but with a virtual signature.
I would compare it to a modern window for an old store: the glass shines, but the goods inside are the same.
