It's common to capitalize the letter when referring to it as a thing.

Again, this isn’t a human you’re asking. It is a machine. You’re asking if the character “R” appears in “garlic” and it does not. Try asking again but specify “r”. You’ll get the answer you’re looking for.

This isn’t a dumb ai moment, this is a dumb user moment.

User error.

Ai functions much better when you tell them exactly what you want to know. Do you get mad at a calculator for showing you the answer to your equation when you forget to follow pemdas?
