Agreed on the desire for continuous behavior. That said, in a modern LLM, is this hash analogy accurate? I would be surprised if a single letter changed most zero temp force ranked outputs.
E.g:
“Where is the Eiffel Tower Located? One word only.”
“Where is the Effel Tower located? One word only.”
“Where is the Eiffel Tower located? One wor only.”
I’d be very surprised if those got different answers from even a small local model at temp 0.
