    Join Foothills Genealogy for a presentation on how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming genealogical research! As a genealogist delving into the world of AI, Russ Hamilton will introduce the basic concept of AI and explain how it can transform your research process. He will explore how AI is used to analyze historical records, decipher handwritten documents, and provide context to your genealogical findings. This presentation will show you practical applications to enhance your research and perhaps uncover new family history insights. 

    The goal of the presentation is to provide a clearer understanding of AI, how it is being applied in our everyday lives, and what a genealogist should understand about its use.  Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience, this session will offer insights into utilizing AI with your genealogy.  Discover research success stories, learn about the current state of AI and how it is being applied in genealogy, and get ready to embrace the future of genealogical research with AI. Don’t miss this opportunity to elevate your genealogy skills using cutting-edge technology!

    Russ Hamilton joined the Foothills Genealogical Society in 2012 to connect with other genealogists and enhance his research skills. Shortly after joining, he became the Newsletter Editor and has been the Webmaster for the past four years. Russ's 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.
