AI doesn't "know" anything. It produces all kinds of things: truths, lies, and nonsense. Pressing a button labeled "I'm not a bot" is the same.
LLMs have "knowledge" and guardrails by their system prompts. The interesting thing is that the agentic AIs in question don't seem to have guardrails that would deter them from acting like that.
