+                comprising the top 10% probability mass are considered.
+            - `n`: How many completions to generate for each prompt. For example, if the LLM gets 3 prompts and n is 2,

+            - `stop`: One or more sequences after which the LLM should stop generating tokens.
+            - `presence_penalty`: What penalty to apply if a token is already present at all. Bigger values mean

+            - `frequency_penalty`: What penalty to apply if a token has already been generated in the text.
