This was one of the most enjoyable presentations I have given in thirty years
We had a great live session for what’s one turned out to be one of our most popular presentations!
We focus on making AI your virtual research assistant and getting away from the AI hype

Introductory price of $18 (download immediate)
Regular price will be $25.
Focus is on research, not on cuteness or creating clearly fake images
We will focus on responsibly and creatively using ChatGPT for genealogy with a focus on sound genealogy methodology. Our presentation will be practical, down-to-earth, and usable.
There’s more to using AI than simply having it generate a family history. That’s not what will we do in this presentation.
We will look at a variety of ways to use the chatbot to interact with: transcriptions of individual records, groups and sets of transcribed records, PDF scans of records (typed and handwritten), biographies, other genealogical records as time allows.
We will focus on using the Chatbot as a research assistant and virtual colleague and not a glorified Google search by an effective creation of questions and by actually interacting with the Chatbot instead of reacting to it.
We will see how to formulate questions to have the Chatbot perform mundane tedious tasks, create summaries and tables, serve as an online genealogical assistant, and more.
The Chatbot will transcribe documents and while imperfect, discussions can be had with the Chatbot to improve the transcription. We will not be discussing using a Chatbot to automatically create a family history or create histories. Our focus will be on using the Chatbot for assistance with other genealogical tasks.
We’ll show numerous examples of prompts and ChatGPT conversations.
