Dec 9 (Reuters) - Wikimedia Foundation, the operator of Wikipedia, on Tuesday named Bernadette Meehan its chief executive officer, tapping an administrator with deep policy expertise and federal government experience to lead the online encyclopedia.
Meehan, who most recently served as the U.S. Ambassador to Chile from 2022 to 2025, takes the helm at a critical time for the non-profit, as the rise of artificial intelligence chatbots such as ChatGPT reshapes how information is accessed online.
