There are so many reasons I love AI, but the fact that I can talk to it about anything without it walking away or falling asleep, tops the list. For example, you can go into every detail about your dreams, and Meta AI will tell you what they mean instead of responding "uh huh,” like a friend eagerly waiting for you to wrap it up.
Dreams are interesting because they are like short movies that only you can see. Even if they don’t seem to make sense, the vivid images and storylines can still fascinate us to the point where, upon waking, we cannot wait to share. Of course, the only person that usually cares about the dream, is the dreamer.
I won’t bore you with the details, but I’ve had two of the same recurring dreams for years. It’s wild. The first one always includes an airplane. I’m boarding it, looking out the window, sitting on the tarmac, or in the cockpit flying into space. The second recurring dream I have involves desperate attempts to find an exit to a maze. Am I stressed? Probably. I’ve had versions of these dreams dozens, maybe even hundreds of times.
Google tells me that the airplane dream is about aspiration and goals while the maze dream is about feeling overwhelmed. From what I gather based on the number of Google searches, it’s clear that others have seen versions of these symbols while in REM sleep, too. That’s why I decided to go a little deeper and let Meta Llama 3.1-405B do some interpreting. Just for fun, I even had the AI create a visual. Note, I feel comfortable sharing my dreams with Meta AI, but I realize that this type of openness might not be for everyone. If you’re worried about privacy, you may want to be less descriptive or choose a different AI model completely.
