      You mean by pausing before you speak?

      People who take time to formulate a sentence before speaking are actually infuriating on some level. Like I’ve got this friend, son of a diplomat, NEVER puts his foot in his mouth. Can you imagine trying to have a fast argument with someone who considers everything they say!

      I can say from experience that it is discomfiting, and maddening if you’re actually passionate about the topic.

        That is a virtue. Sure, it’s good to speak up, but it’d be worse to speak without considering your words.

        I mostly meant like, if you really wanted, you could have an LLM generate responses for most day to day conversations. This feature already exists for text and email.

        I would a million times more enjoy talking to someone that thinks before their speech than someone who doesn’t
