> Grok will absolutely do the same thing another time you try it.

True; it's just not happened yet. It will at some point though. With the Sunnypilot example it right out told me that it is not possible on that fork which I appreciated. The others all seem to hallucinate some setting.

It is really, really genuinely concerning how many people think there are profound measurable differences between these things.

Like yeah tonally I guess there are. But with regard to references and information? You’re literally just using three different slot machines and claiming one is hot.

I suppose though I shouldn’t be that surprised then since Vegas and every other casino on Earth has been built on duping people in that exact way.

It's a fair point. I haven't tested many queries across them all and checked their answers, but if I want to ask one of them a question - right now its Grok just because I trust its answers more.

It's not a methodology problem, it's a test-ability problem. LLMs are not deterministic. You can ask the same question to the same LLM five times and you'll likely get at least 3 answers.

Again. Slot machine.

You can meaningfully test if one slot machine hits the jackpot more often than another, just that the methodology should involve a large number of repeats rather than a few anecdotes. There are some LLM leaderboard sites that do it with blind comparisons.

humans make poor scientists. most people have already made a decision before they run any tests.

the smartest among them just make the tests complicated and biased; the less intelligent just cherry pick.

of course, would you really expect anyone to do real rsearch in this economy?
