AI and Genealogy
May 11, 2026 | Event | LDS Church
The use of Artificial Intelligence or “AI” has become commonplace in every facet of today’s world. Industries such as banking, transportation, and medicine all use AI in some way. JCNYGS Newsletter Editor Yvonne Reff will lead a discussion on AI with a focus on genealogy. AI speeds up and enhances family history research by automating tasks like transcribing handwritten documents, translating records, finding record matches, and acting as a powerful assistant for uncovering patterns and connections across vast historical data.
