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.
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

You don't use IPA for counting the number of letters in words. That would be stupid, and even linguists would laugh at you.
It's still a stupid AI, and it was confidently, and unambiguously, wrong.
Yup. Letters ≠ phonemes and in this case, even the character is different: r ≠ ɹ.
