Model's reliability - garbage in, garbage out

You've heard about the phrase "you are what you eat"? Well, models are the same way! A model's accuracy largely depends on the data it's fed - if you put unreliable or incorrect data into it, it's like feeding a star athlete a diet of junk food πŸ”πŸŸ. The performance just won't be good!

So, always remember, garbage in = garbage out!

The human factor

Believe it or not, even the world's top scientists can make mistakes 😱. Models are built by humans, and sometimes, despite their best efforts, inaccuracies can slip in. It's like trying to bake the world's best cake πŸŽ‚, but accidentally using salt instead of sugar! Not a sweet outcome, right?

Interpretations - many shades of models

One of the cool things about models is that they can be interpreted in different ways, just like a mystery novel or a song 🎡. However, this also means people might arrive at different conclusions.
 

Imagine you and your friend read the same detective novel πŸ•΅οΈ‍♂️, but you suspect the butler did it, while your friend is certain it was the gardener! That's similar to how models can be seen from various perspectives.
