# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Artificial Intelligence for Family History
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way we approach research, and family history is no exception. In this engaging and practical session, you will discover how AI can assist with transcribing difficult documents, organising research notes, analysing DNA matches, mapping ancestral movements, enhancing old photographs, and transforming your findings into compelling stories to share with family.

Designed specifically for family historians, this presentation moves beyond hype and fear to focus on clear, ethical, and realistic applications. You will see practical demonstrations, learn where AI genuinely saves time, understand its limitations, and explore how to use it thoughtfully as a research assistant rather than a replacement in your genealogical journey.
