I'm referring to nondeterminism for the same prompt, since unless you start a session from scratch, it's unlikely you'll have the same history. If you give it a prompt, then depending on what you've told it previously, it may blow up in your face.

    Determinism for the same prompt means you can't give it context through a conversation, which vastly shrinks its utility.

    That said, even that form of determinism can be unreliable: the example of arithmetic still works; you could have it completely deterministic, but if it only performs correctly on 80% of arithmetic problems, it's still unreliable.
