Model card

Also called system card

What does “Model card” mean?

Model card: Short document published alongside an AI model describing what it is for, how it was trained and evaluated, its known limitations and risks, and uses to avoid. The idea came from a 2019 research paper, and large labs now often publish longer "system cards" with safety test results for major releases.
