  • Computers Vs. Humans: Comparing Outputs of Genealogy Programs
    Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs © 2009, Debbie Parker Wayne First publication rights granted to Digital Genealogist, July 2009. All other rights reserved. Computers are very good at handling repetitive, logical tasks—not so good at creativity. Any fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation will remember the trouble Commander Data had with tasks that required feelings or creativity. Even the imaginative minds that created Star Trek: TNG could not imagine computers had advanced so much by the 24th century that an android could rival the creativity of the human mind. There has been an ongoing discussion in the genealogical world about whether genealogy programs can “create” output or reports that meet the creative standards we strive for today—more than a list of begats—an interesting family history with analysis of kinship communities and social context that makes the reader care about the family and want to know more. Some genealogists expect a well-written narrative to be magically spit out by a genealogy program’s report generator. Genealogy databases allow a genealogical summary report to be generated using canned sentences that Sergeant Joe Friday would love—just the facts. The more advanced programs allow customization of the output sentences and source citations to make the narrative more exciting and interesting. Some genealogists think there is no reason for a genealogy program to offer these options. They want only a bare-bones family summary with birth, marriage, and death information. This summary is copied into a word processor where the sentences that flow from the creative juices are then added.
