The problem with these answers is that they are right but misleading in a way.
Glass is not a pure element so that temperature is the "production temperature" but as an amorphous material it ""melts"" in the way a plastic material ""melts"" and can be worked at temperature as low as 5-700c.
I feel like without a specification the answer is wrong by omission.
What "melts" means when you are not working with a pure element is pretty messy.
This came out in a discussion for a project with a friend too obsessed with GPT (we needed that second temperature and i was "this can't be right....it's too high")
