not necessarily. The convergence point can be and will probably be sub-optimal if we keep doing this without a mathematical framework guiding us.

So long as you never stop trying random things, you are guaranteed to find a global optimum... as time->inf

Not a very useful guarantee, but that's theoretical guarantees for you.
