🧬 Over the past week, I used Enhanced Shared Matches to find several potential relatives to a “brick wall” great-grandfather. This is the first time I’ve made any progress on this line! You can see my steps & tips on YouTube: https://t.co/uG2Ry0m6Se #ancestrydna

@DebbieKennett I don't have it yet, either. :(

Interesting chart, but you can't read what the ranges or averages are based on this. I hope they improve it!

Honored to join @blaine_5 , Steve Little, & Mark Thompson in a follow-up to our NGS Conference panel on generative AI and #genealogy. We tackle key questions about AI tools, realistic images, retaining our "voice," & accuracy & bias.

As a non-programmer, I enjoyed working with ChatGPT 4 to create a number-guessing game with Python! I based it on a post I saw on Twitter but improved upon it. 😃

@oktikhon I should have checked to see if there was a Chrome extension. Nice! Thanks!

ChatGPT's mobile app has a search function! 🎉 You can search your chat history, including titles and conversations. Be sure to click "load more" to go further back in time. This is a tool I've needed, but I've had to search manually until now! 🥳

Google's NotebookLM is an AI tool designed to revolutionize research by allowing you to up to 20 sources & use only the information within them. That would mean no more hallucinations! But does it live up to the hype?
