Since when do we need just one statistic to properly analyze something? Give us median, give us average, give us p75 and p99 and p100.

But temperature is a thing for a reason.. some level of non-determinism makes them MORE useful in a lot of cases. So perhaps we can trade determinism for being less useful.. is that still providing the business value though?
The answer as always is probably.. it depends. 😶🌫️

Aren’t there also cases like temperature support being removed from (at least some GPT-5 models)?

To be fair Reimer was the only reason there was even a game 7 in that series. Probably should’ve been over in 5.

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.
