API response quality inconsistency and unpredictability

Inconsistent quality across sessions. The same prompt can produce vastly different quality outputs depending on when you send it. This inconsistency stems from OpenAI's inference routing system, which directs queries to different model variants based on server load and query complexity.

The API often generates outputs that vary in quality and relevance, even for similar prompts. This unpredictability makes it difficult to deliver consistent user experiences.
