Ah ok, you talk about something very specific. Not why embeddings for parts of a body of text appear random. But, why computing embeddings in the same way for a specific body yield different results. The link is revealing. If f is approximately an associative function and you compute in parallel a,b,c with the goal of computing X = f(f(a,b) ,c) ~ f(a, f(b, c)) = Y in some case you may end up a,b finishing first and then c of b,c finishing first and then a. So, you end up computing X in some cases and in other Y. The more values you compute in parallel, the move variations. Some computations like multiplication, addition fall into this category ....
