Ignoring the technology itself, I found it interesting that it has a lot less trouble with verbs compared to nouns (tho the article does not give much information about it).
Would it mean that humans keeps actions very separate (even if similar), while keeping things and concepts more clustered together? Is being precise on what is happening much more important than clearly specifying the subject and object of the action?
I’d wager that humans have much more neural hardware relating to verbs, since they relate to the things you yourself do over longer periods. Let’s say I clean my bathroom, or my kitchen, or something else - the actions I take are very similar, and my head has to keep my body doing the right thing for long stretches of time. It’s much harder to clean the wrong thing than to clean the thing wrong.

There are fewer verbs than nouns I’m sure our brains prioritize accordingly
