I tried it, and got similiar shorter answers but not the exact same answer. Sometimes it ends up getting it right at the end after fumbling a lot, and sometimes it just fails completely.
Searching on Google directly sometimes doesn't produce the AI Overview on stuff like these in my experience, but passing the search to Google from DDG with the bang (!g) almost always produces the AI Overview.
edit: I tried it again and it grew the ability of humor:
Interestingly, on one of my attempts it used python to count the number of t's and still ended up getting the "verbal" explanation wrong.
This might be worse then just giving the wrong answer....
