MYSTERYTwo terminal windows side by side showing the same prompt: 'What is the capital of France?' Left terminal (labeled 'Temperature: 0'): 'The capital of France is Paris.' Right terminal (labeled 'Temperature: 1'): 'Ah, Paris! The City of Lights, where the Seine whispers secrets...' Same prompt, wildly different output.

Same prompt. Same model. Different output.

At temperature 0: 'The capital of France is Paris.' Every time. Word for word. Identical output, identical tone, zero variation.

At temperature 1: 'Ah, Paris! The city of lights, where the Seine whispers secrets...' Creative, unpredictable, occasionally wrong. Run it again and you get a completely different response.
