In the 1980s, Racter was released and it was only slightly less impressive than current LLMs only because it didn't have an Internet's worth of data it was trained on, but it could still write things like:

Bill sings to Sarah. Sarah sings to Bill. Perhaps they will do other dangerous things together. They may eat lamb or stroke each other. They may chant of their difficulties and their happiness. They have love but they also have typewriters. That is interesting.

If anything, at least that's more entertaining than what modern LLMs can output.
