For an experiment wandb have logged this:

```auto
GPU count 1
GPU type NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
W&B CLI Version 0.17.5

```

but for another experiment on the same device, it has logged this:

```auto
GPU count	1
GPU type	[NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090]
W&B CLI Version 0.17.5

```

as you can see, in the second, the gpu type is put inside a list or brackets […]. I’m wondering what this difference mean? What I have done that made this happen? I’m asking because I have some clues suggesting that when they are inside brackets […], the performance is higher.
