The speaker doubts that generating the experience of dreaming requires substantially more computation than generating dream contents.

“And so is this dream within a dream, this dream of actually dreaming a dream much, much more important-- uh, difficult to achieve? Does it require much more compute than producing the contents of the dream?”

“And I doubt that this is the case. If it's not the case, that it's more complicated to dream of dreaming than just to have the contents of the dream that the LLM can already produce, right, or the frontier model, then, um, we should expect that comp-- today's computers are fast enough.”
