If your authoring team is uploading duplicate assets and you want to notify them, then these steps will help you.

: Duplicate detection is disabled by default. To enable the feature, do the following steps:

Open the Adobe Experience Manager Web Console Configuration page at https://[server]:[port]/system/console/configMgr.
Edit the configuration for the servlet Day CQ DAM Create Asset.
Select the detect duplicate option, and click/tap Save.

If assets were already existing & you want to detect duplicates, I suggest you view this useful code.
