  • RLP 405: Interview with Mark and Steve of the Family History AI Show
    Apr 13 2026
    Nicole and Diana open the episode by discussing Claude in Chrome for Pedigree Triangulation before introducing their interview with Mark and Steve about AI, who host the Family History AI Show. Mark Thompson also runs the Making Family History blog, and Steve Little writes on his Substack, Vibe Genealogy AI. Steve is the AI Program Director for the National Genealogical Society. They both teach widely about AI topics and family history, including their own courses. Diana shares her specific workflow for locality research, explaining her "round-robin" approach of gathering raw data from multiple AI models, such as ChatGPT and Perplexity, and then feeding that output into Claude to distill and format the information. The hosts then discuss the idea of verification as a learning tool, arguing that fact-checking the AI's transcription or summary is where the deepest learning takes place, shifting the researcher's focus from typing "drudgery" to the "art" of correlation. They discuss the future of AI and genealogy, concluding that AI will not replace the "human element" in genealogy, such as intuition and persistence. Listeners will learn practical tips on using a multi-model AI "stack" for more accurate, professional results and gain a balanced view of how AI excitement is tempered by the continued importance of the human genealogist.

  • RLP 404: RootsTech Class 2026 Class Takeaways
    Apr 6 2026
    This episode features listener takeaways from the recent RootsTech 2026 conference. Diana discusses the overall positive impressions of the event, noting the high quality of the presentations and the unanimous message about disclosing the use of AI and double-checking its work. Nicole and Diana review several classes on AI, including transforming family history into song, understanding AI's role in archival stewardship, and mastering the basics of AI for genealogy. They share lessons on using AI to abstract information from records, create citations, and analyze research logs to identify gaps. Diana also discusses her class on using AI to clarify complex court records by translating obsolete terms and organizing chronological data. The hosts share insights on specialized research areas, methodology, and records. Diana highlights classes on DNA, including using shared-match grids to analyze and group DNA matches and a methodology to defeat the "Genealogy Gremlin" by evaluating match pedigrees and mitigating confirmation bias. They share a listener's review of Michael Lacopo's session on how to successfully approach non-responsive cousins to encourage them to share their DNA. The hosts discuss classes on research methodology, such as resolving same-name issues by building identity profiles and constructing timelines, and using genealogical analysis to solve conflicting birth dates. Diana notes that a class on probate files reveals that these records contain many rich documents beyond the will, offering clues about an ancestor's associates and lifestyle. They also share Sue Taylor's review a class on Italian records that explains the Latin grammatical forms—nominative, genitive, and accusative—found in civil and parish records. Listeners learn how to access recordings and handouts from RootsTech to apply new AI tools to their research, master advanced DNA analysis techniques, and apply genealogical proof standards to complex records and challenging research questions.

  • RLP 403: Transforming Court Records Research with AI: Analyzing
    Mar 30 2026
    Diana and Nicole discuss the analysis phase of their AI-assisted research into the 18th-century court orders between Samuel Daniel and the Roystons in Colonial Virginia. They explain how AI helps them understand complex legal terms like "imparlance," "covenant," "trespass upon the case," and "replevin bond" within the context of the court cases. Going through a case-by-case analysis, they trace the legal strategy that began after apprentice John Royston ran away from Samuel Daniel in 1770. They discuss Richard Wiatt Royston's initial trespass suit, Daniel's failed attempt to sue the minor John Royston, and the protracted litigation that ultimately led to Daniel successfully suing Richard as the apprenticeship guarantor, which resulted in a £10 award. They also analyze the execution on a replevin bond, which reveals details about Daniel's financial struggle. Listeners will learn how to effectively use AI as an assistant to find, transcribe, interpret, and organize complex court records faster, without sacrificing the fundamental principles of sound genealogical research.
