slides:none on file

A presentation-generator bot is trained on 14,000 SlideShare presentations (about 100 megabytes of slide text) using an lstm recurrent neural net / torch RNN running on GPU instances (EC2, jutsu 2x large); training takes roughly 24 hours with checkpoints every few minutes, early output is gibberish, after ~30 minutes it learns word and slide tropes and later produces occasional coherent nuggets, so the demo pipeline is generate → sample checkpoints → human-select fragments and paste into slides, and it requires a GPU or rental EC2 instance to be practical.
