Abstract
The indirect querying of models to determine capabilities possessed by the model. Such indirect queries take the form of model input that potentially includes a natural language input user data. Such model input is structured such that the output of the model is either not natural language at all, or else is natural language that is not semantically responsive to the natural language input. Nevertheless, the output is evaluated to estimate or determine the capability possessed by the model. Thus, models may be more fully utilized to their better potential.
