📝 Abstract
Lifelong learners from different industries often watch the same recorded lecture, even when they will apply the material in different workplaces. We present Bespoke, a system that takes the transcript of an existing lecture and generates a new video customized to a target industry and duration, with new slides, narration, and charts. From 31 graduate lectures in analytics, machine learning, and optimization, we generated 209 videos for these three industries, plus a generic-audience version of each lecture. Twenty-five experts in the corresponding domains rated 92 videos on a five-point rubric. They judged 87% at or above the rubric midpoint corresponding to ``a standard MOOC lecture's quality'' (mean overall score 3.42 out of 5; 48% scored 4 or above). Overall quality was similar across industries, durations, and a 21-lecture held-out set unused while developing the system, at about \$0.22 API cost per minute of video.
