This is the best summary I could come up with:


But there’s still an appetite for new technologies, since the potential for creativity and problem-solving is so great and since many on the market don’t work to the extent they promise, a dreaming expert told Fortune.

The potential of lucid dreaming is less about conquering specific problems and more about finding new, creative ways to approach topics that a sleeper couldn’t previously fathom.

For example, a mathematician might not reach a specific, numerical answer to a math problem while asleep, but the lucid dream allows them to explore new strategies to tackle the equation while awake.

To create the Halo, Prophetic is working with Card79 founder Afshin Mehin, who designed the Neuralink N1 device for Elon Musk’s brain implant company.

Wollberg founded Prophetic in March alongside chief technology officer Wesley Louis Berry III, who was previously creating augmented reality art.

In response to this claim, Wollberg cited a series of studies that link the level of prefrontal cortex activation with the ability to control a dream.

“Why not abolish days, and just work an endless stream of hours?” —Elon Musk, probably

just a clickbaity headline. Obviously any time spent doing work will count as work hours, and employers don’t need futuristic tech to push for more of those. So nothing is changing in that regard.

You put a lot more trust in our corporate lords and masters than I do.

there’s no trust in my statement. The incentives to increase work hours already exist, and even if it’s not snake oil, this tech won’t change that. A work hour is a work hour regardless if the worker is sitting down or in a lucid dream.
