Abstract: | There exists a separable exact C*-algebra A which contains all separable exact C*-algebras as subalgebras, and for each norm-dense measure μ on A and independent μ-distributed random elements x
1, x
2, ... we have
limn ? ¥\mathbb P(C*(x1,?,xn) is nuclear)=0{\rm {lim}}_{n \rightarrow \infty}\mathbb {P}(C^*(x_1,\ldots,x_n) \mbox{ is nuclear})=0. Further, there exists a norm-dense non-atomic probability measure μ on the Cuntz algebra O2{\mathcal {O}_2} such that for an independent sequence x

lim infn ? ¥\mathbb P(C*(x1,?,xn) is nuclear)=0{\rm {lim\, inf}}_{n \rightarrow \infty}\mathbb {P}(C^*(x_1,\ldots,x_n) \mbox{ is nuclear})=0. We introduce the notion of the stochastic rank for a unital C*-algebra and prove that the stochastic rank of C(0, 1]
