Written by Michael Larabel in Intel on 10 February 2025 at 12:40 PM EST. 46 Comments
Intel's newest open-source project and addition to their AI offerings is... Polite Guard.

Intel Polite Guard is an open-source natural language processing (NLP) language model for classifying text if it's polite or not.

Intel Polite Guard builds off BERT for text classification and this NLP model will classify text as either being polite, somewhat polite, neural, or impolite. Intel has made their data-sets and source code to Polite Guard open-source on GitHub and Hugging Face. As part of this is also a politeness benchmark for being able to compare future NLP models based on their politeness classification.
