The response from OpenAI o1-preview:

"There are 3 letter “R”s in the word “strawberry”."

Bing managed to count the right amount of r's too. It's not hard to correct for the problem everyone has already mentioned on every news website.

Bing did then claim "The word “strawberry” has three vowels: ‘a’, ‘e’, and ‘a’.". Attempts to correct it came up with "one", "four", and "none".

These models aren't deterministic. Saying "it worked for me" is no rebuttal to "it didn't work for me", it just shows how unstable the system is.
