MODERATORS
I think the only stochastic piece of the usual llm layout depends on the temperature variable of the last layer. Are there other sources of randomness? Agreed either way they're black boxes
I'm not sure, I haven't really dug into it to see if the code varies meaningfully across similarly-worded requests, but my understanding is that if you write code, the compiler will compile it the same way each time, but if you treat an LLM like an IDE and the prompts as the "code," there might variations over repeated "compilations," leading to drift if you're working on something iteratively.
