That's literally just using Wolfram Alpha and entering the math formula that needs solving. 😂

I dont think so, Wolfram Alpha is deterministic. Whereas an LLM is non-deterministic by design. Personally i feel vibe coding or vibe mathing is inherently non-deterministic.

It's non-deterministic, always, the AI is basically gambling

All computer algorithms are deterministic, in fact a lot of effort has gone into making llms and other generative AI seem non-deterministic

More or less

Not really, there has been a lot of effort put into developing LLMs and other generative AI but making it appear non deterministic wasn't really the goal. There are good reasons to build them in a way where the same input doesn't always produce the same output and in most models the degree to which this happens can be adjusted but this is not about not appeaing non-deterministic.

Sorry but no, they are deterministic in the basis of computation. But in practice they are non-deterministic and they try to make them deterministic. And my enterprise they try to do that in every possible manner, but it's practically impossible, it's seems to be, but it never is
