What does JSON mean?
JavaScript Object Notation: a text format for lists, dictionaries, numbers and strings that almost every language can read and write. Used here to save models and send messages.
In a lesson
A model is data. For nearest neighbour it is the samples; for the network it is the weights. Data can be written down, and written-down data can be kept, shared, and loaded into a different program, on a different machine, on a different day. This lesson does that with JSON.
