What if you could hand a tough research problem to an AI assistant and let it do the legwork, while you stay firmly in charge of the conclusions?
The biggest shift in AI today isn’t a smarter chatbot. It’s the move from chatbots that answer one question at a time to AI agents that can carry out research tasks on your behalf. Today’s AI can build a research plan, work across entire record collections, follow evidence from one source to the next, and report back with findings and sources you can verify.
In this talk, you’ll learn how to plan your AI research, choose the right tool for each task, and, most importantly, apply your hard-earned genealogy judgment to keep the results research-grade. You’ll also see where these new capabilities are headed and what that means for how you organize your research today.
Join Mark Thompson for a close look at the moment AI stops being a chatbot and starts working as your research assistant.
