For me personally, it's not really about typing speed. While I can type pretty fast and most likely I speak faster than typing, but typing and dictating are just different way of doing things for me. While the end result of both is same, but for me it's just like different way of doing things and it's not a competition between the two.

I regularly just sit down and often just describe whatever I'm trying to do in detail and I speak out loud my entire thought process and what kind of trade-offs I'm thinking, all the concerns and any other edge cases and patterns I have in my mind. I just prefer to speak out loud all of those. I regularly speak out loud for 5 to 10 minutes while sometimes taking some breaks in between as well to think through things.

I am not doing it just for vibe coding, I'm using it for everything. So obviously for driving coding agents, but also for in general, describing my thoughts for brainstorming or having some kind of like a critique session with LLMs for my ideas and thoughts. So for everything, I'm just using dictation.

One other benefit I think for me personally is that since I'm interacting with coding agents and in general LLMs a lot again and again every day, I end up giving much more context and details if I'm speaking out loud compared to typing. Sometimes I might feel a little bit lazy to type one or two extra sentences. But while speaking, I don't really have that kind of friction.
