Thanks to @ryangenealogy.bsky.social for the call out.
I was fortunate enough to host the @apgenealogists.bsky.social pmc session with @andrewredfern.bsky.social on smarter workflows with AI. I'll admit to being sceptical of AI but Andrew gave some great examples of how to make it work for you #APGPMC

Both are important but when sharing stories with our families we need to focus on the latter. Stories get people in.
What most genealogists obsess over:
• Exact dates and spellings
• Citation formats
What readers of genealogy want to know:
• What and who they loved
• What people’s lives were like
• How they overcame challenges
