A Tableau Next Consultant has created a new semantic model and wants to identify potential...

Optimize Model is the feature designed to assess semantic models for AI readiness and recommend improvements. Salesforce describes Semantic Model AI Optimization as evaluating model quality, diagnosing problems, and supplying guided remediation that improves reliability for Tableau Agent. After the feature is enabled, an Optimize Model indicator appears in Semantic Model Builder and shows the model's AI-readiness strength.

Opening the Optimize Model panel provides a breakdown of AI-readiness indicators together with recommended corrective actions. The rating is recalculated as the semantic model changes, allowing consultants to iteratively improve metadata, structure, and agent compatibility.

Q & A Calibration serves a different purpose: it tests representative natural-language questions and helps calibrate how Tableau Agent responds. Business Preferences provide explicit business context and rules, such as how ambiguous terminology should be interpreted. Neither performs the automated holistic readiness evaluation described in the question.
