> The non-determinism at temperature zero, we guess, is caused by floating point errors during forward propagation. Possibly the “not knowing what to do” leads to maximum uncertainty, so that logits for multiple completions are maximally close and hence these errors (which, despite a lack of documentation, GPT insiders inform us are a known, but rare, phenomenon) are more reliably produced.

A fixed seed is enough for determinism. You don't need to set temperature=0. Setting temperature=0 also means that you aren't sampling, which means that you're doing greedy one-step probability maximization which might mean that the text ends up strange for that reason.
