LLMs are random by nature, they might something done one time but miserably fail the next

I think we're getting to a point where LLM randomness is relevant to someone writing a white paper on LLMs, but not as relevant to consumers of them. Yes the technology uses randomness, but the quality of response somehow still seems very consistent and predictable in 2026.
Yeah, and we will continue to learn to use them where the amount of random failure is acceptable or can be mitigated or reduced with additional tools.
