> the same model with give the same result

Is it wrong to think of this as misleading? Don't the results for exactly the same request differ because there are multiple output strings with the same computed weights?

Or do you include "multiple ways to phrase the same" in "same results" and I'm being a noob?

There is certain intentional randomness in how the tokens are selected, and certain unintentional randomness due to letting some optimizations cause small side-effects, but in any case in that sentence I didn't really intended to talk about the result being identical but rather about the result not being any better just because more compute was available, as by default that extra available potential simply wouldn't get used in any way other than getting a speedup.
