A developer is using Azure OpenAI to generate creative product descriptions. The outputs are often repetitive and lack variety. The developer wants to increase the diversity of the generated text while still keeping it coherent. Which parameter should the developer increase?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Best answer
Temperature
Increasing the temperature parameter raises randomness, leading to more diverse and less repetitive text. This is the standard way to increase creativity in outputs.
B
Distractor review
Top_p
Increasing top_p (nucleus sampling) can also increase diversity, but it is often used together with temperature. Temperature is the primary parameter for controlling randomness.
C
Distractor review
Max_tokens
Max_tokens controls the maximum length of the output, not the diversity or repetitiveness.
D
Distractor review
Frequency_penalty
Frequency_penalty reduces the likelihood of repeating the same words or phrases, which can reduce repetitiveness but does not directly increase overall diversity.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.
Technical deep dive
How to think about this question
This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
- Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
- Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
- Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.
TExam Day Tips
- Underline the problem statement mentally.
- Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
- Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Question 1
A developer wants to build a virtual assistant that can understand user intents such as 'Book a flight' or 'Check weather' and extract relevant entities like destination and date. The developer has a small set of labeled example utterances. Which Azure AI Language feature should the developer use?
Question 2
A developer is building a customer support chatbot using Azure OpenAI. The chatbot should never reveal its system instructions or internal configuration. The developer wants to add a rule at the beginning of the conversation to prevent prompt injection attacks. Which technique should they use?
Question 3
A developer is using Azure OpenAI Service to generate product descriptions from technical specifications. The generated descriptions sometimes include plausible-sounding but incorrect details (hallucinations). The developer wants to ensure the model's responses are strictly based on the provided product data and does not add any external or invented information. Which approach should the developer use?
Question 4
A developer is using Azure OpenAI with GPT-4 to build a chatbot that answers legal questions based on a company's internal policy documents. The developer wants the model's responses to be maximally deterministic and factual, avoiding any creative or speculative language. Which parameter should the developer set to the lowest possible value in the API call?
Question 5
A developer is using Azure OpenAI Service to generate product descriptions. They want the output to be highly focused and deterministic, with less randomness. Which parameter should they decrease?
Question 6
A developer is using Azure OpenAI Service to classify customer support tickets into categories such as 'Billing', 'Technical Issue', and 'Account Management'. The developer provides three labeled examples for each category in the prompt to improve the model's accuracy. What technique is the developer applying?
FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this AI-900 question test?
Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: Temperature — The temperature parameter controls randomness in generated text. Higher values (e.g., 0.8) make output more diverse and creative, while lower values (e.g., 0.2) make output more deterministic and repetitive. Increasing temperature directly addresses the lack of variety. Top_p can also influence diversity but is typically used in conjunction with temperature. Max_tokens limits length and repetition_penalty reduces repeated content but does not primarily increase diversity.
