    I just don’t understand why you think it needs to be “fully random” to be called random, when the output is in fact random. To me, when you can ask it the same question multiple times and receive different answers, it’s random and unreliable. You may argue it only changes its answer randomly 10% of the time or whatever- it’s still random. It doesn’t matter if it only answers incorrectly 10% of the time or 5% of the time. Every time the answer is unreliable, because sometimes it changes its answer for no reason.

      You don’t understand because you’re either not paying attention or because you’re trolling.

      Random would be output like this:

      Ostrich maypole dandy ironic. Great cucumber zebra!

      Or this:

      fhsjarbskzkdbsjzb kOdbg zkakfiebwkl

      Random would be a password generator. Random would be utter nonsense. Incoherent. That’s not what LLMs produce.
