AI and Genealogy (not quick, nor dirty) Glossary

There appears to be multiple options for when Artificial Intelligence was created; possibly by Alan Turing or at a conference in 1956. Either way, it was developed mid-20th century. Although companies (including genealogy companies) had been using AI for many years, the official launch date for use by the general public is November 30, 2022 when OpenAI debuted ChatGPT. Since that time, a whole new AI lexicon has been trickling forth; and in some cases, the trickle is more like a flood. I will be posting the new terms as I learn them, but for now, I had ChatGPT 5.2 Thinking version create this handy graphic. It did take me five tries to get the graphic where it's at. The first two attempts had wasted space, and when I prompted it to fill the space, it repeated the terms to fill it. (Facepalm) The last attempt also had wasted space so I asked it to move the citation/disclaimer up under the boxes. Interestingly, the first three attempts had colorful graphics and used several other AI terms. I figured I was dealing with "context rot" so started over and it gave me the plain vanilla result you are seeing. I'd rather have accurate than flashy so it is what it is. I did have ChatGPT provide sources for the terms. Accuracy, accuracy, accuracy - ALWAYS proof AI's work or you might end up in an unfortunate news headline.
