PowerPoint updates to Word

It is my opinion, that the code to affect this would be uglier than manual updating.
The code would need to:
In PowerPoint...
Check for updates to any PowerPoint slide
Create new miniatures to a directory
In Word ...
Determine if slides have shifted (from a new insert or deletion)
Import the new miniature.
Ugly, ugly, ugly.

There is no "paste link" when copying PowerPoint slides.
The only way I can see is using HalfListener's suggestion of code. A little more specifically:
Code would have to save each slide as a graphic.
The graphics can be inserted into Word as a link.
This would auto-update the picture in Word, but ONLY if graphics are inserted as links.
Why aren't you using Notes pages in PowerPoint instead of Word?
