What issue are you seeing?

The current date is always wrong. If you ask the model the current date, it does not know it. Or ir makes up stuff. I believe this should be injected in the system prompt or similar like other models do. The problem is that it loves to do reviews citing the date where the review is taking place. And it's always making up stuff that confuses itself in the process.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Just ask the current date to the model

What is the expected behavior?

Shows the actual current date
