Why am I being charged for Azure Machine Learning?

Context: I created an Azure Machine Learning workspace and uploaded a dataset that's less than 1mb. I created a compute instance and a compute cluster to test. They're shutdown, and haven't used the workspace since Oct 25, yet today I log in and find out I have been charged around $0.40 daily for no apparent reason at all.

The cost management shows the following:

And it's even showing that i'm supposedly using a premium SSD, which is what's costing the most:

I don't remember getting such a disk. And according to the portal, there isn't any:

According to the cost management again, it's not storage what's causing the high cost, it's the Azure ML resource:

There's even this tag: amlresourcetype: provisioner.batch
I tried to google it, but I can't find anything about it.

So finally, I check the computer instances but everything seems ok:

So, does anyone have any remote idea as to why I'm being charged? Why does the cost management says I'm been charged for storage but then it says it's the Azure ML resource? How can I get rid of the supposedly premium SSD I'm using?
