   I think this would be difficult to do in a general (cross-ModelHandler) way 
as each ModelHandler is responsible for invoking it's model, and they currently 
have different ways of doing so.
   
   sklearn calls a predict method: 
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/5b1e1520b975de563b8b57144927894a2fddded1/sdks/python/apache_beam/ml/inference/sklearn_inference.py#L124
   
   pytorch calls the model like a callable (which then uses the forward method 
IIUC?): 
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/5b1e1520b975de563b8b57144927894a2fddded1/sdks/python/apache_beam/ml/inference/pytorch_inference.py#L235
   
   I think the best we could do to solve the problem generally is establish 
some kind of convention.
   
   It's also worth noting that the `generate` method is a property of hugging 
face's `GenerationMixin`, not a part of the `torch.nn.Module` API, which is in 
our contract: 
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/5b1e1520b975de563b8b57144927894a2fddded1/sdks/python/apache_beam/ml/inference/pytorch_inference.py#L199
   
   Is a separate generation modelhandler a better solution?
