Hello,

I'm new to the topic. I was wondering why Microsoft refers to machine learning models as "files"? Is it really something which is comparable to a .txt file that you can open and edit? I always imagined models as a big collection of numbers. So, how are production-ready models saved and used?

Source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ai/windows-ml/what-is-a-machine-learning-model (very first line)

Thanks in advance :)
