Its funny, this was triaged by our experimental AI moderator:

So here I am responding as instructed by the robot :stuck_out_tongue:

The answer is yes, this is built in provided you configure everything just right.

  1. You need an LLM that can confidently do the detection’
  2. You need to battle test a persona for detection
  3. Once you have a battle tested persona you can either use it to triage and flag

Regarding “edit out PII” , this is somewhat risky, cause once you start mucking with peoples words they tend to get upset. My recommendation would be to start with flagging.

Alternatively for some very rudimentary setting you could “ban” entering emails at all using watched words and a regex, but that is somewhat messy and will not be super reliable.
