Why are dreams so strange? The theory based on artificial intelligence explains this

For decades, countless explanations have been proposed for this phenomenon, but the scientific community has yet to reach a consensus on the topic. Recently, Eric Hall, Research Assistant Professor of Neuroscience at Tufts University (USA), added his own theory to the list. Published in the scientific journal Patterns – a drawing, Hoel's hypothesis is inspired by technologies used to train deep AI neural networks and suggests that the weirdness of our dreams helps the brain better adapt to our everyday experiences. "(The theory) assumes that the very experience of dreams is the cause of our dream," says Hoyle. To support this argument, Hoel relies on an AI training process.
