If there’s slight variation, it means it’s not the same image.
And that’s skipping over different RNG etc. You can build a machine learning model today and give it to me, tomorrow I can create a new RNG - suddenly the model can produce images it couldn’t ever produce before.
It’s very simple: the possible resulting images aren’t purely determined by the model, as you claimed.
