Inference
Temperature
A parameter (typically 0 to 2) that controls how random or creative a model's output is.
In depth
A parameter (typically 0 to 2) that controls how random or creative a model's output is. Low temperature (0-0.3) produces focused, deterministic responses ideal for code generation. High temperature (0.7-1.5) produces more varied, creative outputs better for brainstorming.
Example
In practice, developers reach for Temperature when they need the capability described above as part of an AI feature or workflow.
