- Click the "Delete" button to initiate the removal process.
- Upon selecting the delete option, a prompt will appear asking you to confirm the deletion to prevent accidental loss of important knowledge.
- Confirm the deletion to remove the knowledge permanently from your AI knowledge base. Note that this action is irreversible.
