I think you nailed it. I played around with AI Dungeon as well and couldn't shake the feeling that GPT-3 is just a text completion engine filled with smart-sounding, but empty stuff written by a teen on Reddit.

To put it another way: If you read anything from/about GPT-3, imagine who and in which sub would've posted something like this.

Could a model be trained to predict the prompt given to GPT3 based on the responses?

Well that's the thing, it isn't coming up with deeper concepts and using language to express them, it is merely expressing the language that would make sense to as a reply to a prompt. The meaning it has is shallow, much like most young posters. It sounds completely devoid of meaning and purpose because it is.
