Ask ChatGPT to estimate the carbs in your lunch. Now ask it again. And again. Five hundred times. You’d expect the same answer each time. It’s the same photo, the same model, the same question. But you won’t get the same answer. Not even close — and the differences are large enough to cause a
Technically, you can get the same answer twice from an LLM, but only when you control the full input. When a model is being run, a random seed/hash is applied to the input. If you run the model locally you could force the seed to always be the same so that you would always get the same answer for a given question.
The point is they are advertising that these models can do it.
I don’t know what ads show that, but anyone who knows the first thing about LLMs knows you don’t get the same answer twice.
I’d get this expectation 5 years ago when most people weren’t familiar with it, but come on… you don’t need to feed it an image 500 times to see that.
