Genealogy and LLMs

17 June Online

About this event

External registration required at nyhackr.

This month we have one of the earliest members of the meetup, John Myles White, returning to discuss how he uses LLMs for genealogy research.

Thank you to NYU for hosting us.

Everybody attending must RSVP through the registration form at nyhackr. There is a charge for in-person and virtual tickets are free.

Space is extremely limited and in-person registration closes at 3 PM the day of the talk.

About the Talk:
This talk will argue that genealogy is an understudied data analysis problem that can be democratized thanks to the advent of LLM's. John will discuss how LLM’s can be used to automate genealogical research and make it more rigorous.

About John:
John Myles White is currently developing several new software projects. In the past, he was an engineering director at Meta, a core committer to Julia and a psychology PhD student.

The venue doors open at 6:30 PM America/New_York where we will continue enjoying pizza together (we encourage the virtual audience to have pizza as well). The talk, and livestream, begins at 7:00 PM America/New_York.

Remember, register at nyhackr.
