"The median delay between speakers in a human to human conversation is zero milliseconds. In other words, about 1/2 the time, one speaker interrupts the other, making the delay negative."

Is that really a productive way to frame it? I would imagine there is some delay between one party hearing the part of the sentence that triggers the interruption, and them actually interrupting the other party. Shouldn't we quantify this?

I totally agree that the fact the AI doesn't interrupt you is what makes it seem non-human. Really, the models should have an extra head that predicts the probability of an interruption, and make one if it seems necessary.

"Necessary" is an interesting framing. Here are a few others:

- Expeditious - Constructive - Insightful -

Necessary in the context of the problem the model is solving. I would imagine a well-aligned LLM would deem all three of those necessary.
