If you think it's random, you don't understand LLMs.
So, in your learned opinion, it's deterministic?
You sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole, but it turned up an interesting answer. Turns out they are nondeterministic, and why they aren't deterministic is still an open question https://thinkingmachines.ai/blog/defeating-nondeterminism-in-llm-inference/
Interesting, I had assumed that turning down temperature to 0, or hardcoding a seed would make LLM inference deterministic.
Especial after watching this video https://youtu.be/J9ZKxsPpRFk
I had thought I had seen both as well.
Skipped over the opening graphic on first read but just read it. Could they have picked a creepier sample sentence.
And you are perfectly deterministic? Because if you aren't, by your own dichotomic logic, you're random too.
So you say its not random, and now you do a 180 and say that randomness is a good thing?
I should have known you are a troll
🤣 Is English your second or third language? Your reading comprehension is pretty bad if you understood me doing a 180.
