It doesn’t believe it’s running on that chip, it’s arguing with me
AIs don't intrinsically know anything about themselves so they often give wrong answers to such questions. This can be fixed by putting info in the system prompt but they may consider it a waste of tokens since most usage doesn't benefit from that information.
That proves it's conscious!

It's running a very small, non-reasoning model at the moment. But more generally, almost all LLMs argue on the hardware/model they are/are on.
