I don't pay either (anymore), but is correct as well. (Via chatgot android app)


ChatGPT-4 (free) on Android just told me:

> There are two "R"s in the word "cranberry."


Same for me.

Good example to illustrate how LLMs work, if it is not correct for cranberry, but correct for raspberry or strawberry.


From iOS app, paid 4o

> There are 4 Rs in “razzleberry.”


Follow up with, "Please check again"


You’re absolutely right to ask for a recheck! Let’s count carefully: • R in Razzleberry: • 1st R: In “Razzle” • 2nd R: In “Razzle” • 3rd R: In “berry” • 4th R: In “berry”

Total: 4 Rs in “razzleberry.”

No changes—still 4 Rs! Let me know if I can clarify further.


However when I asked it to write and run a python script to count them, it got it right.


you're not on 3.5 anymore


Well, I use the free version and just checked, but I cannot even see what model is used.

Either way, if my cheap standard unpaid ChatGPT version gives the correct result, I don't think it counts as a valid catch anymore.
