Not that it matters much in this context, but low-temperature is not the same thing as deterministic.

Yep. Zero temperature is neither necessary nor sufficient for deterministic inference.

		You can seed the randomness are still having nonzero temperature. Numerical instability can introduce randomness especially on GPU like hardware unless you’re very careful about how you write your algorithms.
