the date is in the "system prompt", so the cron job that updates the prompts to the current date may be in a different time zone than you.

why can't they feed in user data like time zone and locale?

They're not actually processing the entire system prompt (which is rather long) on every query, but continuing from a model state saved after processing the system prompt once.
That makes it a bit harder, but still, spitting out the wrong date just seems like a plain old time-zone bug.
