Mark Thompson & Steve Little chat about AI with the Genealogy Guy
1Description
The Genealogy Guy discusses the impact of AI on genealogy with Steve Little and Mark Thompson from the Family History AI Show. Mark, a retired technologist, and Steve, a language and technology enthusiast, highlight AI's rapid evolution, particularly with ChatGPT. They emphasize the importance of scepticism and experimentation, noting that AI's accuracy depends on available information. They predict AI will integrate into everyday tools, enhancing efficiency. Upcoming developments include "agents" for comprehensive genetic research. The hosts encourage genealogists to explore AI responsibly and actively engage with new technologies. They also mention attending Roots tech at the start of March (https://www.familysearch.org/en/rootstech/) and AI workshops at the Conference for the Institute for Genetic Genealogy at the end of March in San Diego (https://i4gg.org/2025-i4gg/)
