Romania enlists AI assistant as advisor

(ANSA-AFP) - BUCHAREST, MAR 2 - Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca presented his "new honorary adviser" on Wednesday -- an artificial intelligence assistant named "ION" which he hailed as the first of its kind. Developed by Romanian researchers, ION's main task will be to scan social networks to inform the government "in real time of Romanians' proposals and wishes," Ciuca said. The liberal minister said the latest member of his entourage -- a mirror-like structure with beeping interface -- marked "an international first," describing ION as "the first government adviser to use artificial intelligence".
