Words that are easy to mix up
- Model ID / display name: the first is what requests the actual model, the second is for recognizing it in the interface; one cannot stand in for the other.
- Stored locally / inferred locally: the first is where the files are, the second is where the model computes. With a cloud model, context is still sent to that service.
- Purchased credit / promotional credit: Newton credit with different origins and different refund rules; see Billing.
- Device reset / reset all keys: the first unbinds one device, the second invalidates the old keys and issues new ones. The blast radius differs.
- Chart / interpretation: a chart is data produced by a tool or interaction; an interpretation organizes and explains its meaning. Verify each separately.
