- TIL that chess is completely solved with 7 pieces(any combinations) left on the board. This solution is stored in a database table that's 17 terabytes in size.

Is this a draw?
If both sides play correctly, yes this is a draw. Chess is solved with fewer than 7 pieces on the board. At this website, you can check any such position and see what the result will be, assuming perfect play from both sides

Chess, unlike war, is a game of perfect information
There is some truth to this.
In theory, chess is a game of perfect information.
But in practice, this is only true for ~6-piece endgames: every outcome has been / can be computed. But for any middle- or early-game position, the amount of finite information greatly exceeds any person's or computer's capacity, practically speaking.
In concrete terms, the tablebase for 6-piece endgames is ~150 GiB. For 7-piece, it's 16 TiB.

Analysis board, practicing with the computer settings.
Alternatively, if you're playing an endgame with seven or fewer pieces, I suggest you use the Syzygy 7-piece tablebase to get the objectively best response on every move.

White to move and mate in 584 (longest forced mate ever found)
I suppose you mean the syzgy 7 man tablebases? Yes, they do take 50MR into account because they use DTZ metric (fastest way to checkmate, capture or pawn move).
-
What is the longest possible forced mate sequence with K - K + Q on the board? I managed to find a #10 at most but I suspect that you can get more. Has this been investigated?
I'd assume that Stockfish just hasn't found the M9. Tablebases already know the quickest mates in a given position, you can check the tablebase here

Chess-GPT's Internal World Model
There is a very interesting project on this exact problem called Maia, which trains an engine based on millions of human games played on Lichess, specifically targeting varying levels of skill from 1300 to 1900 Elo. I haven't played it myself, by my understanding is that it does a much better job imitating the mistakes of human players. https://maiachess.com
- A chess terminal user interface implementation
- Interested in going to my first tournament and was wondering if there is a place where I can review players classical games around 1700 rating so I can get an idea of what is expected and their strengths?

Scientists claim >99 percent identification rate of ChatGPT content
In general the goal of these progrms is to win, not to pretend to be human.
In chess, there is a project called Maia which aims at predicting the human move rather than the best move. Even then it blunders less than humans of a similar rating, so it can still be detected.

Most human engine to play against?

Do you have to buy Maia to use it offline?
It's on GitHub, you just need an interface like Nibbler.

Anyone know if there are chess AIs trained like chatGPT, as a move predictor instead of a move maximizer as most have been (I think)?
That's exactly what Maia Chess is designed to do. https://maiachess.com/
