    @benroyce Whenever someone posts a Gemini screenshot as proof, I always have to ask, "You don't realize how much of a self-own that is, do you?" Right over their heads.

            @michael @fesshole truck doors (3) outnumbered by wheels (6, 10, 18). Schools & Commercial buildings are peppered with doors.

            Shopping carts, train cars, wheeled appliances, wheeled furniture, and many tools & toys have far more wheels than doors, and are in homes by vast numbers. Once I start considering all of those wheels, I can count my home’s doors in moments but find myself unable to enumerate all the wheels tucked away in odd use cases in that house.

            How narrowly do we define wheels? Flywheels? Toothed wheels (gears)? Pulleys or wheels holding belts?

            Cars and other motors have flywheels, gear works are full of wheels, wheels persist in clocks and watches. A big retail Hot Wheels display at Christmas countermands the doors of a small city. Pumps, turbines, water meters and anemometers rely on wheels.

                        @fesshole Wheels. Many things have doors but no obvious wheels (houses, f'rex) but many houses also contain wheels — in the form of toys, collectables, model cars/planes/trains that have functioning wheels but non-functioning doors. Also, depending on if an entrance needs a solid covering to be a door, then that also discounts parts of the world where fabric or beads are used as doors, along with any open doorways.

                        Only a moron would ask chatGPT when it's far more interesting to think.

                          I currently sit on a chair with 5 wheels, and there are small furniture pieces in this room with a total of 18 wheels...
                          But also 8 cabinet doors.
                          I don't think it's that trivial.

                          ...also, do mouse wheels count?

                          Most office chairs have double wheels. One each side with the support in the middle.

                          So 2*5 = 10 wheels.

                          Then there are all sorts of wheel like things in industrial processes.

                                    My first thought was 'are gears wheels?'

                                    Are gates also doors, or does a door have to be in a wall and not a fence? Then what about all the doors at the lumber yard not yet installed?

                                    The eyes are the doors to the soul. A lot of animals have eyes. Some of them are even compound

                                    Fruit flies have 7-800 little eyes per big eye. That's 1400-1600 eyes per fly and no eye lids. Why doesn't Dr. Who carry an overripe banana around to keep the weeping angels away? Time flies like a banana

                                      Toys heavily skew the balance though. Toy cars tend to have 4 wheels and no doors and dollhouses tend to have at most one door but toy cars heavily outnumber dollhouses

                                        Cars have 4(ish) doors and 4(ish) wheels so they don't matter. Bikes have 2(ish) wheels and no doors. Houses have ~10 doors and no wheels. Nothing else has wheels or doors. There are likely not 5 times as many bikes as houses in the world. Ergo, doors.

                                        @michael @fesshole some windows have 2x pulley wheels....... Wheelbarrows, lawnmowers, my Legos have wheels and doors, if we count gears I think wheels win, but who knows and I wonder if different LLM would give different answers.

                                          @saxnot @fesshole It doesn't matter. "Are they asking follow-up questions or ChatGPT" is what's really being asked
