Two of the models used have retrieval capabilities and have access to newer information through search. The other three are parametric.

Comparing models with search tools to models without - when there's no option for "I am unable to answer this question without access to search" - doesn't make sense to me.
Agree about comparing models with and without search capabilities. Even the two models with search capabilities (Sonar Pro and Gemini) agree only on 58% of the claims.
Yes, so in that case you set them up to disagree and then measured disagreement.
The title mention "fact-checks", but "fact checking" is a process in which facts are checked against sources, not one where you are given a random fact and have to tell if it's true or false from your own memory. That's what is normally called a quiz game. So a more honest title for this research would be "Models answer differently to quiz questions".
