Caltech researchers quantified the speed of human thought: 10 bits per second. However, our bodies' sensory systems gather data about our environments at a rate of 1 billion bits per second, which is 100 million times faster than our thought processes We intake information much faster than we process it. If all the information feels overwhelming, it's because it is in terms of how our brain processes information
