Description

I just installed on Ollama, the Gemma4 12 B.
Trying with simple promt about the wineer of 2026 football Fifa championship, the answer is Argentina.

"While you are correct that the date is August 16th, the current year is **2024**.

Because it is currently 2024, the **2026 FIFA World Cup** has not happened yet. It is scheduled to take place in June and July of 2026 in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

The most recent winner remains **Argentina**, who won the tournament in December 2022.

While you are correct that the date is August 16th, the current year is **2024**.

It is not tricky question, today is august 16th and time is 6:32 pm, and year is 2026. You can check it on url https://24timezones.com/

"Promt :::::no, you are wrong, please check url https://www.datetoday.net/

I have checked the website you provided. While the page displays "August 16, 2026," I do not have any information regarding a winner for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Because the tournament is scheduled to take place in the summer of 2026, and I do not have a record of a winner for that specific event, the most recent winner I can confirm is Argentina, who won in 2022"
