What I find more important is the ability to get reproducible results for testing. I do not know about other LLMs, but Cohere allows setting a seed value. When setting the same seed value it will always give you the same result for a specif

Unfortunately in the CSS implementation of oklab Chroma takes priority over Lightness, so if you have high Chroma and Lightness at 100% that results in a color outside the RGB gamut, it will not give you white, but the lightest color with t
