eval — A repeatable test for AI quality — a set of tasks plus scoring — used the way software teams use test suites, because model output is too variable to judge by eyeballing.
benchmark — A standard public test set for comparing AI models — the shared scoreboards behind every "model X beats model Y" claim.

This one is built for the inner loop, re-running reconfigured benchmarks across successive checkpoints and checking whether a win at small scale survives the full training run.
