The use of Large Language Models (LLMs) in bioinformatics pipelines raises questions about reproducibility, particularly when these models are used for subjective tasks like cluster annotation. A key concern is how changes in the LLM over time might affect the consistency of results when a pipeline is revisited for publication. AI

IMPACT Raises questions about the long-term stability and reproducibility of AI-driven scientific workflows.
