    LLMs ar intrinsically undeterministic. You cannot posibly control what they do, and you (realistically) don’t control the data tgat they have been trained on and how they are tuned to behave. Respectfully. I think your statement shows a lack of fundamental understanding on how they work.

      It’s a matter of degrees, and of use case.

      If your use case demands 100% accuracy, that’s a dead end.

      If you can’t validate the output, then you need to go back to the drawing board.

      I keep going back to the same rule of thumb: if you can’t do it without AI, you can’t do it, period. It’s a time saver, not a magic wand.
