For fun, here's a classifier that judges whether text is stupid or clever.

I made this a while ago, it's still being refined and will be released as a service at some point, but here's a preliminary copy for you to play with. Just enter a comment and press the button, and it will tell you if your comment was stupid or clever.

To clarify, "stupid" and "clever" are only judged on style, not content, so something well-written but erroneous like "The sky is indubitably orange with green stripes" will be judged as clever.

For added fun, try pasting YouTube comments.

looks nice!

Is there any classifiers that you use to judge the cleverness of a given statement or simple regex? please don't mind I am just trying to learn a thing or two :D

It does use a classifier, currently it's a naive bayes one, as we found that it produced the best results!

nice! if you don't mind, what other tools are you using ?

What do you mean? What for?

Should have been more explicit with my question., I'll try to do it now.

With tools I meant, which standard libraries language serverside, training corpus etc., I hope to have made clear.

Hmm, nothing standard, really... I just used vanilla python and the corpus is some texts and ungrammatical comments I've assembled from various sources...
