Question+ Model
How are decisions made?A directly elected President and Executive Council; a House of Representatives with constituency seats plus reserved seats for women and former combatants; community governments including chiefs.The Prime Minister is formally responsible for Diella; the Constitutional Court states AI cannot change who exercises public power or bears accountability.
How are conflicts resolved?Joint consultation between the ABG and the national government under the Peace Agreement; customary reconciliation at community level; outside moderation on the referendum outcome.Opposition challenged the decrees before the Constitutional Court, which dismissed the request on 8 October 2026; its full reasoning is pending.
How are public goods funded?Health, education and roads delivered with limited capacity, funded mainly by national grants; mining revenue is hoped for but contested.Aims to improve public-service access and reduce discretion in public procurement.
How is AI used?No specific role for AI in the autonomy arrangement.Chatbot and voice assistant on e-Albania; a procurement system tender was still being prepared in August 2026.
What are the main risks?Frustration over delayed ratification; fiscal dependence; conflict over reopening the Panguna mine; residual armed groups.Unclear accountability for an AI 'minister'; no AI law yet; no published technical detail; AKSHI's leaders face a tender-rigging case.CLM-0359
