Changelog Entry

Description

The Open WebUI logs print out the first chat exchanged between a user and the chatbot.

This is because there is a vanilla print() call in the method that generates tags for chats.

If users are using Open WebUI with proprietary information, this print statement means the chat content will end up in whatever log system they are using alongside Open WebUI.

Removed

Removed an unnecessary print call

Security

No longer unexpectedly logging chat exchanges

Additional Information

I'm happy to go through and remove/replace other print() methods with log.debug
