What is the issue?

Problem:
I was exploring some lightweight llms via ollama , smollm2 and llama3.2 .
I first explored with the classic pushkin's book worm problem .
Then I went for prisnor's dialemma .
Weirdly when I ran the smollm2 it processed the prompt and gave it's output , but on the next block I ran the llama3.2 with exact same prompt and it is giving the output for pushkin's problem .
I have ran the block multiple times , same issue ( I even re ran the smollm2, that worked but llama3.2 gave old output)

Here's a ss for reference
