February 3: AI & Genealogy: Trouble Ahead
While AI (artificial intelligence) might be the current “hot” buzz word, the fact is that many genealogy vendors and even genealogists have already been using this technology for years. The AI industry is at a crossroads and within the next five years, it will permeate almost every aspect of business and society. Learn how AI is currently being used to improve the genealogy experience, and whether or not you should seek out other uses of artificial intelligence for your own genealogy research.
Thomas MacEntee is a professional genealogist specializing in the use of technology and social media to improve genealogical research and as a means of interacting with others in the family history community. See https://genealogybargains.com/previous-engagements/ for over 1,000 previous lecture appearances from 2009 to the present. Thomas lives in Chicago, Illinois.
