LLMs won't spit out the same word-for-word response for the same prompt
You can give an LLM the same seed and it will spit out the same word-for-word response. That’s how they work. It’s just a bunch of math.

You are right, but you are also wrong. If they’re given the same seed, they certainly will. They are 100% deterministic. But in reality, the seed is randomly generated, so yeah, it won’t be exactly the same every time.
Wtf?? They made tons of the AI slop on their themselves!
Idk, I never liked Windows 10. It was better than 8, but I never thought it was good. XP was the last good Windows.
Maybe have Ben Shapiro marry it? That’ll make it dry.
In case you want to know, here’s an explanation of most of those:
And some more:
Please read the last sentence of my comment. I am not saying that the interpretation is wrong, I’m saying the statement that that’s not how LLMs work is wrong. That is how LLMs work. They are deterministic. The only reason they don’t do that in practice is because we purposefully seed them with random data to make them not do that.
