Abstract

We present a lightweight, production-ready method to increase uniqueness in LLM outputs. The approach blends:

🔁 Model rotation
🔥 Temperature tuning
🧠 Embedding-based validation
🧹 Deduplication logic

We benchmark GPT-4, GPT-3.5, Gemini-Pro, Claude-3, and DeepSeek across multiple tasks. Our goal: increase creativity without sacrificing quality or cost efficiency.

Motivation

LLMs tend to converge on safe, repetitive outputs. That’s great for stability — but not for idea generation, puzzle generation, or brainstorming tasks where diversity matters.

Key Strategies

Model Rotation: Alternate calls between APIs like GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek.
Temperature Tuning: We found 0.7–1.1 yields the best creativity-to-cost ratio.
Validation via Embeddings: We use MiniLM sentence embeddings to check for similarity.
Real-Time Deduplication: Structural and semantic filters applied per batch.

System Architecture

Built in Node.js, our service:

Accepts a prompt
Rotates across LLMs
Fetches embeddings
Computes cosine similarity
Flags near-duplicates
Tracks model cost

Results Summary

🔍 Prompt Test: Science + Math (Temp = 0.7)

Model	Quality	Cost ($)	Efficiency
GPT-4	0.311	0.0034	92.7
GPT-4-Turbo	0.630	0.0030	212.4
GPT-3.5-Turbo	0.566	0.0003	1887.4
Gemini-Pro	0.547	0.0001	4100.0
DeepSeek	0.666	0.0004	1537.2

🔥 Temperature vs Creativity (GPT-4)

Temp	Uniqueness	Validation	Cost ($)
0.1	0.1293	1.0000	0.0253
0.5	0.1961	1.0000	0.0259
0.9	0.2494	1.0000	0.0270
1.3	0.4220	0.9767	0.0398

Takeaways

🚀 Model rotation adds variability that temperature alone can’t achieve
⚖️ Best trade-off point: GPT-4 at temp ≈ 0.9
💸 GPT-3.5 and DeepSeek offer best low-cost creativity
🧠 Embedding validation is fast, scalable, and production-ready
