(If 1 firing = 1 bit, that should be 34 megabit ~= 4 megabyte.)
This random article (which I haven’t fact-checked in the least) claims a bandwidth of 8.75 megabit ~= 1 megabyte. So that’s like 2.5 OOMs higher than the number I claimed for chinchilla. So yeah, it does seem like humans get more raw data.
(But I still suspect that chinchilla gets more data if you adjust for (un)interestingness. Where totally random data and easily predictable/compressible data are interesting, and data that is hard-but-possible to predict/compress is interesting.)
