Huh, I wonder if that's why you cannot change the temperature when thinking is enabled. Do you have a link for the paper?

At the actual inference level temperature can be applied at any time - generation is token by token - but that doesn't mean the API necessarily exposes it.

Thanks. I was referring to the fact that Anthropic, in their API, prohibits setting temperature when thinking is enabled.
