The first question that I have when I see a tools like this is a different one, namely what about (inevitable) misclassifications? False accusations by an ML model, in a world where people are increasingly willing to trust such models, could have serious consequences. The problem with this is that you can't solve this on the engineering side, because a higher accuracy will arguably make the issue worse.

I'm not saying don't build such tools, and it's definitely great that to have them open source, but it's something to be aware of and caution users about.
