Critical Temporal Context Error in Venice Large (Based on Qwen) Invalidating Post-2023 Information

Problem Description:

Venice Large operates under the erroneous assumption that the current year is 2023, systematically rejecting verifiable information generated after that date. This limitation not only distorts analyses of recent events in politics, science, or entertainment but also denies the existence of Venice.ai as an active platform, as its official launch and operational deployment occurred in 2024-2025. The model classifies as "false" any data outside its temporal horizon, even when sourced from updated reliable references (e.g., coverage of the 2024 U.S. presidential elections, 2025 generative AI advancements, or recent film releases).

Root Cause Identified:

The training data cutoff of the base model (Qwen) ends in 2023, with no protocols implemented to integrate subsequent information or validate real-time events. This creates a critical disconnect with the current reality (2025), undermining its utility in professional, academic, or mass consumer contexts.

Operational Impact:

• Inability to accurately analyze post-2023 events (e.g., 2025 geopolitical crises, recent medical breakthroughs).

• Loss of credibility by denying its own existence as a service (e.g., when asked "What is Venice.ai?", it responds: "No records of this platform exist in 2023").

• Limitations for users in fields where timeliness is critical (journalism, financial analysis, scientific research).

Concrete Example:

When queried about the 2025 Dubai Climate Agreement, the model responds: "This event did not occur, as no such negotiations existed in 2023," disregarding official documents published on government websites and international media outlets in 2025.
