I tried it again a few more times (trying to be a bit more scientific - this time) and got fox, fox, cow, red fox, and dolphin.
If I don’t provide the weights, I got: red fox, tiger, octopus, red fox, octopus.
Basically, what I did this time was:
- created an inconigo browser session
- Went to Duck.ai
- Pasted the weights
- Pasted the question
- Terminated the browser (to flush/remove the browser cookies)
What I did the first time was simple went to duck.ai, created a new chat (I only did it once).
So what’s the take away? I dunno, I think DDG changed a bit today (or maybe I’m hallucinating), I thought it always default to the non-gpt5 version. Now it defaults to gpt5.
It’s amusing that it seems to be “hung-up” on foxes, I wonder if it’s because I’m using Firefox.
