Might be worth making it clearer that the chat messages are going to a remote server. So any PII data is leaving the local machine.

I tried to make it clear with the popup message that appears when you start chatting: "Public demo. Use sample data only. Messages are processed by the selected AI provider."

But you're right that it's not as evident as I wanted to, I'm making a small copy update to make it clearer: "Public demo. Your chat messages leave your device and are sent to the selected AI provider. Use sample data only."

(Since there's support for local models, the popup is only displayed when NOT using your own model)

Thanks!

EDIT: the copy update is live, thanks again!
