Reed Hepler discusses the changing role of archival work in the era of generative AI. He explains that while some may think archives and AI are incompatible, there are actually many ways in which AI can be useful in archival work. Reed also demystifies the role of archivists, highlighting their responsibility in acquiring, organizing, preserving, and interpreting historical records. He emphasizes the importance of structure, objectives, and perspectives in creating archives and offers insights into how AI can assist in the archival process. Reed also discusses the skills required for archival work, including curiosity, attention to detail, and the ability to find interest in seemingly mundane tasks. He compares generative AI tools to musical instruments, emphasizing the human element in using these tools effectively. Reed also advocates for open access and equitable access to information in education.

I've been hearing a lot from new sellers, those with a few months of experience, and I also have the great priviledge to speak with the REALLY top guys from time to time.  Some of them even know that I exist! The number one thing that holds back the new sellers is not the motivation, discipline, or a lack of effort.  Just like in the real world, business owners don't get paid for effort.  You can slave away in front of your computer, making hundreds or thousands of designs, and make just a few sales, while someone else can put out a hundred designs, and make 80 sales a DAY. The difference?  The successful sellers don't make products that THEY think will sell.  Instead, they look at the data that's already available, and they make designs that people are already looking for.  Hitting a trend at the right moment can produce massive, and amazing results! In this episode, I talk about research skills, and I share some insanely valuable tips to help you find those trending gems. As always, I highly recommend taking your training to the next level with the Low Hanging System.  Join up, and you get a year of free integration with Amazon, Etsy, and Ebay, plus access to the Facebook group where we are constantly sharing tips, and helping new sellers with their business.

How do you find that surprising fact, that unexpected contributor or winning story that will make your programme unique? Our panel offer their views on how a researcher can make the best of his or her time and on the resources available to get the best for their programmes. Top of the list is an ability and willingness to speak to people. Rather than staying stuck behind a screen and relying on sometimes dubious facts from the internet, the panel stress the importance of making connections with people, whether they are academics, experts or ordinary members of the public, and the many channels now available to help them make immediate contact. They also discuss the best resources they have used, the best ways to keep track of the mammoth amounts of information and the different planning required when working on long form factual series as well as fast turnaround shows. Jaime Taylor is a freelance documentary maker and assistant producer on the acclaimed social history series The Secret History of Our Streets. She is also co-founding director of award winning film collective Postcode Films, whose documentaries explore the relationship between place and identity. Mark Edger is a science and history researcher who has worked on series including Bang Goes the Theory, The Culture Show, Great Excavations and the forthcoming documentary on Thomas Cromwell for BBC Two.
