Deploy a privacy-focused AI assistant

Build a healthcare AI assistant that ensures your large language model has multiple layers of protection, including PII detection and content moderation.

Detailed description

This quickstart includes a healthcare AI assistant demo showing how guardrails could help protect HIPAA-compliant applications.

The demo tests a patient services AI with four protection layers:

  1. PII Detection - Protects Social Security Numbers and medical IDs
  2. Content Moderation - Blocks inappropriate language
  3. Prompt Injection Protection - Prevents system manipulation
  4. Gibberish Detection - Filters out nonsense queries

For example, here's how PII detection works in action:

Explore the complete interactive demo in docs/healthcare-guardrails.ipynb.

The LLM Guardrails quickstart is a quick-start template for deploying multiple layers of protection for LLM applications using TrustyAI's orchestrator and specialized detector services.

This quickstart includes a Helm chart for deploying:

  • A Llama 3.2 3B Instruct model with GPU acceleration.
  • Multiple AI safety detectors: gibberish detection, prompt injection detection, and hate/profanity detection.
  • TrustyAI GuardrailsOrchestrator for coordinating safety checks.
  • Configurable detection thresholds and routing policies.

Create a new project

PROJECT="guardrails-demo"

oc new-project ${PROJECT}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Install with Helm

helm install ${PROJECT} helm/ --namespace ${PROJECT} 
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Wait for the pods to be ready

oc get pod -n ${PROJECT}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

You should see an output similar to:

Test

You can get the OpenShift AI Dashboard URL by:

oc get routes rhods-dashboard -n redhat-ods-applications
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Once inside the dashboard, navigate to Data Science Projects -> guardrails-demo (or what you called your ${PROJECT} if you changed from default).

OpenShift AI Projects

Inside the project you can see Workbenches, open up the one for guardrails-workbench.

OpenShift AI WB

Open the workbench, inside of the Jupyter Notebook folder, you'll see the guardrailing-llms repository already cloned, go to docs/healthcare-guardrails.ipynb and follow the instructions.
