Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama announced that Albania has become the first nation to integrate European Union legislation through the innovative use of artificial intelligence during its negotiation process.
Speaking at the regional conference titled “Shaping the Future of GovTech,” Rama highlighted various areas where Albania has made significant strides thanks to AI technology.
He noted that the country is advancing in its EU integration efforts, particularly in the negotiation phase for membership, aided by a groundbreaking tool that has not been previously utilized by any other country.
“This achievement is unprecedented among states currently negotiating for EU membership. We have developed a model using artificial intelligence that allows us to expedite the transfer of the entire EU legislative framework much more swiftly than in the past. This includes rapid translation and detailed text analysis of the aspects concerning the potential impact of these new laws that need to be incorporated into Albania’s legal system,” said Rama.
The Prime Minister pointed out that this process involves thousands of documents. Historically, the pace of work related to such legislation was about 60 pieces per year, while the total number stands at around 4,000. Based on these figures, the process would typically be lengthy and demand a significant number of translators, drafters, and editors.
On October 15 of this year, Albania officially commenced negotiations for its first chapter in the EU accession process during the Second Intergovernmental Conference between Albania and the European Union held in Luxembourg. Albania has sought EU membership since 2003, when it, along with other Western Balkan nations, was recognized as a potential candidate for EU membership at the Thessaloniki European Council summit in June of that year.
