> This PR removes the dependences of `mx.io` and `mx.initializer` on the numpy's global random number generator. The dependences are not sound as they introduce unnecessary coupling with user's environment and confuse newcomers about seeding. If this PR is accepted, I'll make similar PRs removing the dependences on python's and numpy's global random number generators from `rnn/io`, `gluon`'s samplers and so on.
