Enhanced Profanity Filtering System
What’s New
The profanity filtering system (profanity_filter=true) now includes:
- An expanded database of profane words and phrases
 - Real-time filtering support for streaming audio
 - Standardized asterisk replacement for filtered content
 
Note: Profanity Filtering is available for English-only.
Key Changes
Previously, our system would replace detected profanity with similar-sounding words. With this update, all identified profane content is now consistently replaced with asterisks, providing clearer and more predictable output.
