A New A.I. Device Turns Your Dreams Into Videos

This is cool.  Or, you could just hit snooze and go back to bed.

A group of tech nerds in Amsterdam came up with a new gadget called a “Dream Recorder” that turns your dreams into VIDEOS.  But it doesn’t actually scan your brainwaves.  You have to remember your dream, describe what it was, and it turns your DESCRIPTION into a video.

It’s slightly bigger than an alarm clock, with a screen on the front that shows colorful, low-def clips of your dream.  All the examples they shared look more like an acid trip than real life.

It stores a week’s worth of dreams.  They say it’s meant for “reflecting on the meanings of your dreams as they echo into waking life.”

The good news is it’s somewhat affordable.  The bad news is you can’t buy one . . . you have to BUILD it.  (???)  They claim it’s not that hard and posted a shopping list with instructions.

It’s built on top of an A.I. video app called Luma.  They say the total cost is around $330, plus 15 cents per dream.
