Pitfalls to watch at work

Gemini in Gmail

• The draft is built from the whole thread: before sending, check that it does not retell internal discussions the recipient should not see
• The model readily promises deadlines and amounts on your behalf: check figures and dates in the draft against the contract
• In a personal account, email containing client personal data passes through Google without a corporate data processing agreement

Notion AI

• The AI answers from the whole workspace the user can access: pages with salaries or contracts shared by mistake end up in answers
• Column auto-fill runs on every new record and uses quota, so turn it off on databases with thousands of rows
• Keeping pages with employee personal data in a free workspace without a data processing agreement is risky
