How many r are there in strawberry? (infosec.pub)

Just got schooled by an AI.

According to Wiktionary:

(UK) IPA(key): /ˈstɹɔːb(ə)ɹi/
(US) IPA(key): /ˈstɹɔˌbɛɹi/

...there are indeed only two /ɹ/ in strawberry.

So much for dissing on AIs for not being able to count.

It also is just making up a string of words that are probabilistically plausible as a continuation of the dialog.

You can do the same tests with other words and it will just contradict it’s self and get things wrong about how many times a letter is pronounced in a word.
