Why are we not putting chimps in rooms with typewriters? A chimp could theoretically find a cure for cancer in a week. Why are we taking the risk of missing out?

Honestly?
Assuming you have a time machine, and the chimp can somehow type about 1^5000 years.

To sort the usfull information form the irrelevant information, even if they are all red, and the irrelevant sides are black. Would take much longer as if you do it your self. Thats why.

How is a chimp going to type 1^5000 years?

This is not relevant since you can use the oscillation of an quartz crystal to create random letters on an digital writing program. Trillion times faster. The problem still exist, the ratio of useful to useless information is to high to have any significance.

Because the typewriters would end up covered in shit, at which point you'd basically have India.

Mostly you would get new Shakespeare comedies, something none of us would like to see.
