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?

I can type faster than I can think. Output is by far not what limits my productivity.

That's true. But I wouldn't want those parts of the brain generating output on social media 😄

Faster than your language processor can think, but not necessarily other parts of the brain
