so if you didn’t know, humans need sleep. and lucid dreams are more being awake than being asleep neurologically speaking.
so this company wants people to basically stay awake 24/7. sure, that’s gonna work out just fine. no problems here.
People I think forget that REM is Rapid Eye Movement sleep which is the part where your brain is actually rewriting itself and setting new pathways but doesn’t let your body feel well rested.
We need a mix of all things and we have already done studies that people can actually keep awake and working with intermittent resting with no actual deep sleep let people generate muscle mass and stay healthy right before their brain goes insane from the lack of true sleep.
This sounds so dangerous and antithetical to a long lasting healthy work force if this tries to get normalized that it will likely cause a forced evolution of our species by the people that can’t maintain that dying off.
Company doing company things.
Have narcolepsy, can confirm. The body is rested, but the brain so sleepy.
Just wait till they start hallucinating, that’ll teach 'em. :/
Can confirm, experienced many exhausting months of rebound REM after becoming sober from alcohol
Shit sucks

“lucid dreams are more being awake than being asleep neurologically speaking.”
Could you provide a source for this claim?
The source is called sleep science. You should look into it.
You should look into providing a source instead of vague direction
Also, Google is your friend
You want a source for something that’s covered by an entire field of study? Good luck bud
Cool, then It should be easy for you to find a peer reviewed study on the general physiological effects of lucid dreams on the human body, I mean, given that it’s a entire field of study and all…
I’m sorry for your struggle
Sounds like you’re just lazy and don’t wanna back up your claim.
Next up: AI controlled exoskeletons so you can still work when you’re dead.
I’m scared of the future
Nah, give it 38k-ish years or so, I’m sure it will be fine by then.
I know this is a joke, but that’s just robots with a flesh body inside for no reason
But you can claim tax breaks for them if you pretend they’re people.
No need fleshy body. Replace the working class with robots. Got it /s
There was a time when this was considered utopia. Replace all workforce with robots, so all humans can just pursue their desires at a leisurely pace, making life hopefully overall more enjoyable.
Working Class: “We want wfh! No more offices!”
Corporate psychos:“Hmmm, we can work with that.”
I would actually love to work in my sleep if that meant I get to live the rest of my life while awake
Lol they’re not going to do that
yeah I know lol
Are we really going to go from “The Simpsons predicted this” to “Rick and Morty predicted this”? Please let’s not.
huh?
There’s an episode from Rick and Morty where the whole main cast gets their asleep selves to do annoying tasks they don’t want to do while they’re awake, to nefarious consequences.
oh, okay. I was just confused because I’m not sure where I mentioned the simpsons or rick and morty. all good lol
Working in your sleep sounds like a good way to think you’ve finished your work when in reality you’ve just written some random shit into documents.
“The company has already raised more than $1 million to develop the headband and is reportedly working with one of the designers of Elon Musk’s Neuralink device.”
Oh good, so there’s a chance you might die from it too.
But it will have a autowork function that will do your dream work for you up until you quit watching it work. Then it will crash you into a parked semi truck. Provides once and for all that you can die in real life if you die in a dream. Patient pending
A fight-or-flight triggering high-pitched noise plays every night starting at 21:00
The only way to make it imperceptible to you is to plug yourself into the work server
And if you sleep quiet quit, you’ll be banned from the server for day.
And if you point out that it’s a bit fucked, many of your neighbors will tell you that your employer is actually doing a good thing because they make the noise stop, so stop complaining
Wait, I wanted the Brave New World timeline.
I would have settled for the Brave New World album. Or even just the single
I hate this.
I sleep 8h a day and have a 40h work week, so I wake up in the morning and am done for the day, right? Right??
My boss makes a dollar and I just a dime, that’s why I sleep on company t… wait…
Drug addicts and insomniacs: hmm, I’m unproductive as usual, yet it feels different
As long as i would wake up refreshed and dont remember what I worked on fuck yeah i would work in my sleep.
Watch the TV show Severance.
What do you think they do there. In the company?
Refining macrodata
So far the show has offered more questions than answers. We’ll see.
I would sleep-work for 3x12 hours and enjoy the rest of the week.
And if you’d take the blade north to south, they’d find a way to make you work even then. Not being able to escape work even in your sleep is hellish.
Next up: New tech allows bosses to check if employees are working in their lucid dreams or having wild sex
This is absolutely a venture capital scam. The tech isn’t even there for Jetsons style recreational dreaming. No way you can make tech that will extract useful work out of dreamers any time soon.
Has to be a scam. Good on them, though. If private equity firms and venture capitalists have all the money, take em for all you can get.
Not another. If this works, I’m actually gonna commit arson so this doesn’t continue to exist.
