Stochastic Generation

A generation mode that introduces probabilistic diversity instead of producing the exact same output every time.

Stochastic generation allows generative systems to produce different but plausible outputs for the same prompt. This is highly advantageous for creative applications, ideation, and multi-candidate exploration. However, increased diversity also requires more careful quality control in terms of consistency and factual reliability.
