Parameters

Sketch: a huge panel of tiny dials set during training, a few circled; a leader line links it to a small engine.

Parameters are the numbers inside a model that it learned during training; big models have billions of them.

Think of it like this: Parameters are the engine’s internal settings, set at the factory during training. More settings can mean a stronger engine, but also a heavier one.
