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?
