* [**Non-Deterministic Outputs and LLMs limitations**](/docs/user-documentation/agents/llm-best-practices/understanding-llm-limitations): Large language models like Claude, GPT, Gemini or Mistral are non-deterministic, meaning the same input won’t always produce the same output. They don’t know how to read structured data easily.
