I have a lot of lucid dreams, and they’re often in a specific city, and sometimes I even go to work in these dreams. I haven’t lived in a city and worked in an office in over 10 years, so it’s some kind of reverse escapism. I can always leave, and weird stuff happens anyway. I wouldn’t trust any of my work output there.
But to let a company try to take over your dreams and never let you escape, you need to stand up and fight that shit. Put them in a never-ending nightmare where nobody gives them money.
If you think LLMs hallucinate too much, wait till you check out code literally written during hallucinations.
I was sitting here thinking how useful a loop to count bananas before running out of time and losing my shoes and or pants before realizing I’m in a large college auditorium and everyone is laughing at me would be!
I posted this in another comment, but during uni I did in fact write code in lucid dreams. A friend can vouch for a specific time when I woke up from sleep during an all nighter, to fix a very specific bug (which I just remembered, we didn’t even know it existed), then went back to sleep. On another occasion, I designed a recursive path-finding algorithm to replace djikstra’s algorithm, all in my sleep.
It definitely can be done (though I doubt it could be done consistently and without actually imagining shit up), but it really shouldn’t be done, I really doubt I was really resting while doing that.

Cash-drawer?
This concept actually makes me want to have AI take my job
If I’m going to be working in my dreams, I better get paid for it.
I don’t entertain media with clickbait titles, and you shouldn’t either.
Well this is fucking dystopian.
Lucid dreaming is such a cool concept. The ability to mentally experience things in a truly boundless environment, untethered by laws of physics or standards of reality.
Why the fuck would you want to waste that experience on work?
I feel also the concept of “work” is viewed from employer/employee perspective, but I’d argue it should be viewed more from "useful” development one. Like reading a fiction book vs a non-fiction.
You have no idea the shit that’s in my dreams. You wanna see me code like that?
Buckle up, chuckle-nuts.
Ps: shutup and get in your work pod already
Getting closer and closer to making you part of the Matrix. Your productivity is not allowed to stop.
Are you really sleeping then? I thought the point of sleeping was to wash away the buildup of plaque (amyloid?) in your brain. IINM the inability to get rid of it is one of the reasons for Alzheimers and dementia.
I would really like to know what they measure and how it compares between users and non-users of this ultrasonic tech. Disrupting brain functionality to be quasi awake might not be the smartest thing to do.
Hey guys do you wanna fly on the plane I dreamt into reality?
Imagine if you could study in your sleep… Or “watch” a book and be acually there… Hmm that wouldn’t really work for innner dialogue of other characters…
