Heck, even theoretically 100% within the limitations of an LLM executing on a computer, it would be world changing if LLMs could write a really, really good short story or even good advertising copy.
They are getting better and better. I am fairly sure the short stories and advertising copy you can produce by pushing current techniques harder will also improve.
I don't know whether current techniques will be enough to 'write a really, really good short story', but I'm willing to bet we'll get there soon enough (whether that'll involve new techniques or not).
