Prophetic is developing technology to induce lucid dreams, in which CEOs can practice for board meetings and architects can design buildings while asleep.

    I really don’t think this will become a thing but holy shit if it did that would be the most cyberpunk dystopian thing that has ever actually happened.

    I can’t imagine any possible negative side effects from hijacking your sleep cycle to work.

    I wish I could lucid dream. Then I could shoot up nazis in my sleep.

        if you do this in roblox, it might be better to do targeted jobs of 1-2 villagers each so that the runescape mods don’t imprison you, it intuitively makes sense that the mods are strapped for resources and are more likely to let a 1-2 villager job slide under their radar but not a mass deletion

        though don’t take my word for it bc I’v enever played starcraft!

        Yeah but the graphics just aren’t as immersive.

    I wrote a paper during a lucid dream once by speaking with myself.

    It can be done, but is it funner than flying? Probably not.

      It won’t be about fun, but 20 hour workdays.

        I get that, just saying I’d rather spend my lucid dreams flying.

      it is a tech startup there is a high chance their claims are hype based bullshit

      the average manager of a tech startup is a little boy who insists his dad is a power ranger

    Not gonna read the article right now but this sounds like VC hype shit preying on bourgeois anxieties about undisciplined labor.

    There’s a scifi TV series called Severance where memories at work and memories of personal life can be severed, I won’t spoil the story but this news of writing code in their sleep sounds just like that.

    I already write code in my sleep and it sucks. Pushing this code to production would be heretical.

    I don’t want to know what type of heinous garbage silicon valley tech bros would produce via dreams. The shit they say when conscious is already pretentious and awful.

    Also it’s BS to inflate company values. The entire system is a scam.

    i tried lucid dreaming before, and it always evolved into the equivalent of what would happen if you snuck up on a person tripping on DMT and told them that demons were coming for them. i don’t think this’ll work as great as they think…
