LATEST DEVELOPMENTS

Albania appoints ā€œDiella,ā€ an AI-made virtual minister to run public procurement, promising incorruptible, transparent tenders and a phased rollout. Diella also powers e-Albania’s digital services.

Details:

  1. First-of-its-kind: Albania introduces Diella as a virtual, AI-powered government minister, not a human official.

  2. Portfolio: Diella is assigned all public procurement to remove tender decisions from ministries.

  3. Goal: The government aims for ā€œ100% incorruptibleā€ and fully legible tenders through AI oversight.

  4. Rollout: Implementation will be phased ā€œstep-by-step,ā€ expanding Diella’s authority over time.

  5. Platform ties: Diella already powers the e-Albania portal that delivers most government services.

  6. Capabilities: She will assess tenders and can ā€œhire talentsā€ globally to strengthen procurement work.

  7. Context: Albania targets EU accession by 2030 and is tackling persistent procurement corruption flagged by the EU.

Takeaway: A landmark test: Albania is betting an AI ā€œministerā€ can hard-wire transparency into procurement, and set a governance precedent.

Google’s Gemini split-screen overlay is expanding from tablets and foldables to regular Android phones via the Google app beta, enabling draggable, real multitasking.

Details:

  1. What’s new: Gemini’s split-screen overlay, previously on tablets and foldables, is now appearing on standard smartphones.

  2. How it works: Open the Gemini overlay on any app, then drag the Gemini bar upward to split the screen; on larger displays, dragging left/right places apps side by side.

  3. Early devices: The feature first surfaced on Galaxy Z Fold 6 and other large-screen devices before reaching regular phones.

  4. Spotted rollout: Users report it working on a Pixel 8 Pro after installing Google app beta 16.35.63.sa.arm64.

  5. Availability: Requires the Google app beta for now; stable builds will get it once Google widens the rollout.

  6. Why it matters: You can summon Gemini without interrupting videos, reading, or other tasks, true on-the-go multitasking.

Takeaway: A practical AI upgrade: Gemini becomes a true second-screen assistant on phones, no app switching, just drag and work.

Anthropic settled a class action by U.S. authors alleging pirated books trained Claude, avoiding a December trial after a split ruling created massive liability risk. Broader impact on AI cases is unclear.

Details:

  1. The case: U.S. authors sued Anthropic, alleging millions of pirated books were used to train Claude.

  2. Settlement: The parties settled, averting a trial scheduled for December.

  3. Key ruling: Judge Alsup held training could be fair use, but flagged liability for keeping a ā€œcentral libraryā€ of pirated books beyond training use.

  4. Risk factor: Potential damages reaching into billions or even trillions likely drove Anthropic to settle.

  5. Ripple effects: Impact on other AI copyright suits (OpenAI, Microsoft, Meta) remains uncertain.

  6. Contrast: Judge Chhabria, in a Meta case, suggested fair use may hold unless plaintiffs show market-flooding reproductions risk.

  7. Outlook: With many cases pending, expect more settlements or bets on favorable precedent.

Takeaway: A pragmatic retreat: Anthropic neutralizes extreme damages risk, while fair use boundaries for AI training remain unsettled and case-specific.
