Ancestry

My mother loved geneaology. Every family vacation involved a bit of research about our family.

After she died, my husband bought me a subscription to Ancestry to digitize her work and share with our kids. Turns out my mother made a few mistakes (which were lovely to find).

Now I'm trying to document exactly how my relations came to the US. I relaunched my Ancestry account and the AI has made it so much harder. SO MUCH HARDER.

How can a tool that grew from SEO be so bad at matching text and keywords?
