100%. The GPT models are trained not to pass the Turing test. and yes, fiction writing suffers for it. What i would give to have access to base GPT-4 for fiction writing
The world of publishing is certainly seeing the attempts for such an llm:

And I do wonder how difficult it is now. We have datasets like libgen and Anna’s Archive … are there public llm’s out there that have been trained in this way?
Probably the next best thing: I think Microsoft Azure still offers access to the GPT-3.5 base model (aka code-davinci-002). But OpenAI removed it from the API. Too powerful perhaps.

no, that's pure marketing. They have difficulty scaling it in a cost effective way. simple as that. Everything else is just sales talk
1. This can be seen by comparing the fiction writing ability of the GPT-3.5 base model with the fine-tuned ChatGPT-3.5 model: https://nostalgebraist.tumblr.com/post/706441900479152128/no...
