Is It Possible to Apply This to a Non-Biological Brain?
I don't think a i is conscious in the right way to have something like dreams. And that's because i am maybe a biological thinker who tries to reserve those for organic entities.

Plants can't feed themselves and keep on living but I will wait for another novelist to write about the rich powers of nightmares or night terrors.
