Probably because temperature parameter is not 1.0 when the model samples next tokens. Having it above 1 leads to the bias towards the more probable tokens.

Yeah, u/farmingvillein suggested that before you. The temperature parameter behaves like temperature in physics though, so low temperatures (i.e. temperatures below 1) decrease entropy, by biasing it towards the most probable tokens, and high temperatures increase entropy, by making the distribution more uniform.
