Bard uses Google (ie the Internet) to answer things, while GPT4 doesn't. So bard can answer things like, "what's the weather in SF today" or "who won the basketball game last night".

The model being compared on the LLM Arena does not use ChatGPT4, it uses GPT4 API, which does not have access to the internet by default.

I'm not sure what you mean. ChatGPT with GPT4 uses Bing to search the web.
