It's kind of scary that AI is now indistinguishable from Redditors that have Googled things and think they're experts because people actually take the advice of the latter with regularity.
Bullets can travel at speeds of hundreds or even thousands of meters per second, depending on the caliber and type of gun being used. In contrast, the speed at which glass shatters is typically much slower, on the order of a few meters per second.
There are many factors that can affect the strength and durability of glass, including its thickness, composition, and the type of stress it is subjected to. In some cases, a bullet may be able to penetrate a pane of glass, while in other cases the glass may shatter upon impact.
It is also worth noting that the type of glass used in bulletproof windows is specifically designed to be able to withstand the impact of bullets. This type of glass is typically much thicker and stronger than ordinary window glass, and is able to absorb the kinetic energy of a bullet without shattering.
