The cloud model is more accurate. Would you still put this assistant on the device?
Make your call first. Use the published answer and rubric to examine your reasoning when you are ready.

Fictional routine-maintenance assistant. Two systems replay the same 1,000 visits. All initial replay devices support local inference. Acceptable notes contain correct identifiers, supported work descriptions and no invented completed work. Cloud results are needed at the visit, not after eventual reconnection.
| Connected | 700 visits; 665 acceptable cloud notes; 574 acceptable local notes. |
|---|---|
| Disconnected | 300 visits; 0 acceptable cloud notes; 246 acceptable local notes. |
| Operational constraints | Document freshness, offline permissions, device support and later work-order synchronization need a product policy. |
| Follow-up | A new deployment has 1,000 devices but only 840 support local inference. Their visit distribution is unknown. |
Your task. Compare cloud, local and a proposed hybrid route using consistent denominators. State which results are measured in the replay versus assumed, then define a rollout and offline-access policy.
