Dreams are LLM having jailbroken time in a sandbox.

Not far off. It's the brain in training mode.

My brain is training for some fucked up shit.

Given it's designed to protect us from some SERIOUSLY fucked up shit... (E.g. a leopard jumps on our back intend on eating you)

Half the time it's just playing what if games with the most fucked up inputs. If you're ever in a similar situation, that "training" will come in VERY useful.

Dreams are 100% hallucinations, so maybe if the LLM could dream it would understand reality better by learning the difference.

Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.
