Use of ...と思います at beginning of presentation


I've noticed that in the introduction to a presentation of some sort (whether
it be an academic presentation or a YouTube video explaining something), the
presenter will often say something along the lines of 「 … したいと思います。」 Why is
this? Doesn't this give the message of "I think I want to present this"?




It's just a very common way of saying "I'd like to ..."

An adult saying 「 … したい。」 is pretty uncommon.
