If I say that <b> and <strong> are exactly the same in HTML, am I wrong?

[MuhammadImran]

These two things can be different:

With different CSS visual styles and look
When you interact with them, they may have different JavaScript functions tied to them.
Any code that can read html could handle them differently.
They mean slightly different things. The bold tag talks about a certain visual element, while the strong tag says more about how important the subject is.

It depends on a lot of things. They have something in common, but they may not be the same thing.

Or more specifically...

The <b> HTML element is used to draw the reader's attention to the element's contents,
which are not otherwise granted special importance. This was formerly known as the Boldface
element, and most browsers still draw the text in boldface. However, you should not use <b>
for styling text; instead, you should use the CSS font-weight property to create boldface text,
or the strong element to indicate that text is of special importance.

The <strong> HTML element indicates that its contents have strong importance, seriousness,
or urgency. Browsers typically render the contents in bold type.
