I trained a recurrent neural net with the same parameters as the most recent version of GLOSSATORY on the Gutenberg e-text of the 1811 edition of Francis Grose's Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue.
The output was even better than I expected. The following excerpts were taken at increasing temperatures (the amount of randomness used to sample the network) but the formatting of the entries was learned by the RNN from the original text.
I'll definitely be turning this into a Twitter bot.
Addendum: It's now available as a bot on both Twitter @VulgarRNN and Mastodon @vulgar@botsin.space
