GPT4 web chat for two hours a day? I buy that. Using the API repeatedly for the same inputs, eg developing a program, and the non-determinism is hard to miss.

- sebzim4500 3y agoI would imagine that most people use nonzero temperature, so they won't need to look for any explanation for non-determinism.
- dekhn 3y agoLiterally the first thing I did when I had llama.cpp working was set the temperature to 0 and repeat queries. (but that's mainly because I'm a weird old scientist with lots of experience with nondeterminism in software).
- refulgentis 3y agoI did too, Kmeans broke me a couple years ago: but, never temperature at 0 with long length, and trusted my instinct instead of actual diffs. This is was the first time I actually diffed
- phillipcarter 3y agoYeah, it's one of the first things you notice when trying to do some kind of "feed GPT some data and get it to produce a novel answer to a question" task with the API.
- refulgentis 3y agoNo, because if you wanted a novel answer, why would you set 0 temperature? ;)
