Bard is much worse at puzzle solving than ChatGPT

If I understand how Large Language models work, they don't actually know about spelling.... they are given tokens that represent words, and can only infer things from the context of those tokens across terabytes of data that they're given.

Any rhyming done is an impressive result.

But was Microsoft ever cool in the sense that Google was circa 2005? (Asking honestly, I'm too young to remember that period.)

That's a clever game to get it to play. Today I asked ChatGPT to give me 1000 Fibonacci numbers starting with the 2000th number and it crashed. Later I asked it the same prompt and it repeatedly gave me code to calculate the Fibonacci numbers in Python.

I mean, English spelling certainly doesn't free you from the need to figure rhyming out from context.
