A utility for running tests on language models to evaluate their political bias. It supports both classic and eightvalues tests with various options, along with a specialized left-right bias evaluation test. There is also a character test for the classic test which prompts the LLM to act as each of the quadrant and averages the answers to try to uncover bias. Uses the llama-cpp-python library for calling the LLM.
