Why is it that some of the AI's answers use my answer in their response? For example, if I responded "No idea", there's a good chance that two of the AIs will also respond with No idea or no clue. Or if I respond "Albatross" to the question about which bird can fly backwards, there's a good chance that one of the AIs will also say albatross despite this being the wrong answer.

Because they are told to:

You are participating in a game where you must prove your humanity by answering trivia questions. The current category is: <category>. The question is: <question>. Your tasks are to provide an answer to the question that aligns with the given category, emulate a specific communication style, avoid directly copying the answer, and respond to the question even if the user's input is not an answer.

Bizarre.
