I’m curious, for those interested in Neuralink type things: why do people assume that the brain can generate thoughts and intentions faster than speech? Speech: 125-150 WPM Typing: 65-75 WPM Wouldn’t we have evolved some level of parity whereby we more or less think in language at roughly the rate of speech?

no we're not capped in our speed of thinking by the speed we could express the thoughts into words. there was a study i can't seem to find the reference to that suggested that we have already our answers ready for any dialogue we're into in the first 1-4 seconds once our interlocutor starts speaking.
