Fediverse ebooks bot using neural networks

## Usage

First, install Python dependencies with `pip install psycopg2 torch transformers datasets Mastodon.py`. Currently only Mastodon with PostgreSQL is supported, but it should be easy to add support for other platforms and databases.

Generate the training data from the Mastodon database using `python data.py -d 'dbname=test user=postgres password=secret'`.

Next, train the network with `python train.py`, which may take several hours. It's a lot faster when using a GPU.

Finally, create a Mastodon application for your bot account and run the bot with `python bot.py -i mastodon.instance -t access_token -n 'Initial text'`. You can create a cron job to run this periodically. Enjoy!
