It really hinges on substantially similar. If I copy Harry Potter and change every instance of Harry Potter to Michael Rose surely it's infringing. If I write a coming of age story set in a magical land I'm probably OK. Which do you think LLM produce?

Whatever you ask and the model will be judged by its accuracy.

If you ask for Harry Potter and it gives you Bart Simpson it’s useless.

It's likely not possible of literally giving you Harry Potter. If you specify it narrowly enough that it qualifies as fan fic its probably exactly what you were going for. After all your word processor is capable of producing infringing works but is not itself an infringing work.
