An LLM is a conditional distribution over token sequences, not a function, so a single generation is one sample and most of what is called prompt engineering is an attempt to control a distribution by nudging its conditioning. I will make that precise, show how agentic engineering (sampling, verification, and feedback in a loop) is the practical response, and demonstrate it live: an agent builds a presentation end to end, alongside the unstructured baseline for comparison.
