The result to aim for
Wikimedia France imposed Gemini, integrated into its Google suite for associations, as the only authorized general AI, with a rule: no HR documents or non-public internal documents.
What was done
Renaissance Numérique published an interview on 29 July 2026 with Rémy Gerbet, Executive Director of Wikimedia France, an association of about ten employees. Noting that employees and administrators already used these tools, sometimes with paid personal accounts, the association has set a guideline: only Gemini Pro, integrated into its Google account for associations, is tolerated for document analysis and writing. The most sensitive documents, including HR, and the few non-public internal documents, should not be sent to it. No structured training: learning is done between colleagues. Uses: synthesis of voluminous reports, balance sheets, emails, search for documents. After a year, the tool is used almost daily, and management notes a "relief" of employees who no longer need to be used in hiding. The internal digital charter also applies to AI tools.

I run a small structure of [nombre] employees. We want to guide the use of general AI. Tools already used: [liste]. Data we handle: [types]. 1. Writes an internal one-page note: authorized tool, encouraged uses, prohibited data, which contact in case of doubt. 2.
