The AI’s I use like Claude, Deepseek, Grok, and Chat GPT all write in a away that isn’t actual story writing. They usually summarize thing’s, have character’s be omniscient and know past or future events they shouldn’t know, always talk expectantly, give unnecessary sensory and environmental details and it definitely can’t set up a mystery or write a specific genre like comedy. They keep over clarifying as well what something isn’t or is along with even saying what I said not add directly.
I need AI that are at least capable of writing more humanly and following what you tell it. Idk why there isn’t any actual AI built for writing , story writing not essay or school writing. Most can critic something pretty well but can never implement those fixes they suggest. I usually upload my fic through PDF for the AI read . It gets things of what chapter is what at times wrong or completely be unable to remember a chapter ending or the actual one.
I would suggest two models: a local gemma 4 26b variant or a cydonia variant. This one specific custom gemma variant I have been using does a very good job at providing vivid details, while not being overly verbose. I love Deepseek 4 but I can assure you I agree with you 100% in that I don’t think it can write “like a human”. I’ve also got some custom versions of GLM4.7 that support very high memory context that run well on consumer hardware and also seem to have very good writing styles. I’ve also used various GLM 5.1 instances in remote TEEs are also good at writing, world building, etc. There’s plenty of other suggestions I’m sure others will give you, such as Qwen variants.
However, model suggestions out of the way:
Writing styles are always going to be tough to get right, regardless of the model.
