Anyone know something similar to GPT but isn't really 'AI' but more a blackbox algorithm that you don't have to train, and can spit out blogposts given a few bits of initial input?

For example, let's say I wanted to generate an article about 'why the sky is blue'. Couldn't I just say to the program: 'Yes, use Wikipedia as reference material', 'Include 3-4 images with captions too', etc

I imagine such a tool is in use, it's just not possible to know what bloggers use it, since such a tool could be abused to create blogspam on a scale never seen before. In other words: with great power comes great responsibility.



I think Salesforce has such a model. It is called CTRL. Have never tried using it though. It accepts metadata to generate text conditionally on that metadata such as domain of text.
