Your line of thinking also presupposes that Bard is self aware about that type of thing. You could also ask it what programming language it's written in, but that doesn't mean it knows and/or will answer you.

This is a common occurance I'm seeing lately. People treating these things as oracles and going straight to chatgpt/bard instead of thinking or researching for themselves

I had the same issue as OP. Initially Bard seemed clueless about Gemini, then:

Me: I see. Google made an announcment today saying that Bard was now using a fine-tuned version of their "Gemini" model

Bard: That's correct! As of December 6, 2023, I am using a fine-tuned version of Google's Gemini model ...

It has access to the Internet and is free to search for the right answer.

If I ask it who it is, it says it is Bard. It is aware of the launch that occurred today. It cites December 6th.

It just very incorrectly felt that I was asking an ambiguous question until I restate the same question again. It's not great.

Knowing it’s own build information is something that could be trained into the model right? Seems like a good idea.
