RootsTech Dream Playlist #12
Using ChatGPT as Your Personal Writing Coach
The best way to improve family history writing is through feedback. OpenAI's ChatGPT is the perfect tool for providing feedback, acting as your on-demand writing coach. This session will cover how to use it and five prompts to get you started.
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
• Improve family history writing by applying different styles and voices to existing writing
• Start working with AI as a writing coach using five different prompts to evaluate your writing and suggest improvements
• Explore ways to use ChatGPT as a friendly companion while you write, not a replacement for your writing
• Create your own ChatGPT prompts to use as you write your family history
Much of what is covered is also applicable to Claude, but this session will focus on ChatGPT.
Denyse Allen created Chronicle Makers in 2024 to help family historians capture their ancestor's stories. She shows how to use technology to enhance and assist in bringing research to life.
Denyse's first genealogy work focused on the public and private records in Pennsylvania. PAancestors.com offers hundreds of free resources for genealogy researchers. Her first book Pennsylvania Vital Records Research was the #1 best seller in genealogy in December 2022. Her second book Archives of Pennsylvania covers the 800 archives in the state, their collections, and how to research them.
