It's not really 130-150 words per min though bc mostly the words we say are nonsense, "uhms" and saying the wrong thing and starting over and pausing and such.

Not to mention, when we speak to a computer, it's not like to a person, as others have pointed out. The 130-150 wpm number comes from in context speaking where we already know what we're going to say. That isn't the case when doing things on a computer such as responding to a comment, anything requiring thinking, coding, etc.

Also, text-to-speech systems do not immediately recognize the speech we say, adding further delay.

So it's not actually 130-150 words a minute.

In terms of meaningful day-to-day use, I maintain that it's far slower and less precise than a keyboard, especially if you're a proficient typer.

And this makes sense as everyone I've ever met who likes to use text-to-speech (excluding those who MUST use it for disability reasons) are simply those who are bad at typing. Cope harder. slow-mo. This comment was written using a keyboard

EDIT:

so what they’re saying is true for that one use case

This doesn't follow. Both of us are talking about inputing in english. Vibe-coding with a keyboard is also superior there

You do all of that with a keyboard, too! You stop and think. You erase and try again. You never actually sustain your 80 WMP peak (or whatever),

When it comes time to knowing what they're going to say, however long that takes, the average person can speak much faster than they can type.

You're way overthinking it, and also wrong. Read the research. If you are some super-human typer, good for you! I specifically said "average person".

Cope harder. slow-mo.

Please explain.
