1Z0-1127-25 LLM Fundamentals Practice Question

Which of the following sampling strategies is most likely to produce the most diverse and creative text?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

Temperature sampling with temperature=1.2

Temperature sampling with a higher temperature (>1) increases the probability of less likely tokens, promoting creativity and diversity.

Answer analysis

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

✗
Beam search with width 5
Why it's wrong here
Beam search finds high-probability sequences, not necessarily diverse.
✗
Greedy decoding
Why it's wrong here
Greedy is deterministic and not diverse.
✗
Top-p sampling with p=0.1
Why it's wrong here
Low top-p restricts vocabulary, reducing diversity.
✓
Temperature sampling with temperature=1.2
Why this is correct
High temperature flattens the distribution, increasing diversity.
