AI is transforming genealogical research. As a genealogist delving into the world of AI, Russ will introduce the basic concept of AI and explain how it can transform your research process. AI can be used to analyze historical records, decipher handwritten documents, transcribe audio files, and provide context to your findings. Learn practical applications to enhance your research and uncover new family history insights.
Understand AI, how it is being applied in our everyday lives, and what a genealogist should know about its use. Whether you are a beginner or have years of experience, this session will offer insights into utilizing AI with your genealogy research.
Russ Hamilton is the Newsletter Editor and Webmaster for Foothills Genealogical Society. His fascination with genealogy began in 2006 when he discovered an online family cemetery. The names of the people there sparked his curiosity and started his journey into family history research.
