Hi! I am trying to test `v0` after seeing some great videos on YouTube. However, I am not having any luck getting it to output anything at all.

When I prompt it, it thinks and thinks and starts to output, and then suddenly the whole screen goes blank and all I see is:

> **This chat is private. Ask the owner to update this chat’s sharing permissions.**

How can I start using `v0`? I tried a few more times with no luck.
