So then, at most, ChatGPT would only know a brief summary about the book?

ChatGPT might have a larger text buffer (the much anticipated GPT-4).

But IIRC GPT-3 has a 4K prompt limit. Enough to fit a concise book summary, I suppose.

The base model would have information about the books from common crawl training data, summaries, reviews, opinions etc. In some cases parts of the books may be in there.
