Does temperature go to 1 or 2?

Hey @AlexDeM , first of all thanks so much for taking the time to share these incredible insights!

I would like to gather more context about how you built them. Were you basing them on a specific GPT model? Did you have access to internal documentation or tech talks?

It seems like you’ve built a sort of temperature scale, mapping numbers to potential level of outcomes, which is really useful IMHO. The part that puzzled me the most is:

The ChatGPT (GPT-3.5) has its Temperature set at 0.7 (fixed point) - and it is already considered subject to “hallucination” - for the amusement of the general public - but with reduced reliability.
Temperature values above 0.9 (90%) make the responses technically useless - it serves no purpose other than artistic creativity.
God only knows what happens when values between 1 and 2 (100% and 200%) of the “unofficial” range are applied to Temperature.

As of Jan 2024, the Chat Completion temperature docs states that it defaults to 1, which in your scale would mean technically useless responses, with no purpose other than artistic creativity.

And what do you mean by “official” and “unofficial” range? The docs say they support between 0 and 2.

Note: I don’t have any experience using the temperature param yet.

Best regards!
