Problem Description

related to #17192
also here feedback from new users (mostly NON IT background and "normal" non-IT Users) => UX feedback

If the users have managed to send their first prompt, they immediatelly start writing next prompt, as not seeing that the current prompt is being processed.
Here it shall be more visible with a one time pop-up or even better with a more visible UI element, that the AI is "thinking", so they wait until pushing next prompt

Desired Solution you'd like

make better UX for visibility of AI/LLM is thinking/interfering

Alternatives Considered

afaik no other options available as both named? Except do nothing

Additional Context

consider your grandma has to use the APP and make it easier to her to understand
