My Weirdest Experience

Who knows, maybe it was your right hemisphere. 

Shout-outs to them, if so. Almost definitely the first time someone has directly referred to them, that's got to be very exciting. 

Even if you are not literally their right hemisphere (not like you would know of course), but if you are there and if you have access to high-level knowledge of the world: hi, good job all of these years! 

The usual RL approach to dreams is to treat them as either a kind of exploration (not necessarily model-based, possibly just chopping up memories of episodes to stitch together or doing something intermediate like a successor representation) or focus on the hippocampus which appears to encode spatial representations of memories (which makes sense given agents are embodied and typically must move through space to accomplish anything, as opposed to extremely unnatural behaviors like sitting at a computer all day*) & then be doing something akin to experience-replay to finetune itself.

* You ever notice how rarely dreams are about computers or smartphones? When I kept a dream journal, I was bemused at how completely unrepresentative of my life it was, primarily in omitting computers; my dreams had plenty of time for all sorts of other boring stuff, like going to school having forgotten to do my homework the night before, however... It's a bit like how fiction struggles to incorporate computers at all. "Here is our contemporary protagonist who spends 10 hours a day on her computer and/or tablet and/or smartphone. Let's, uh, have her lose it in the first 10 minutes so we can get the plot going."
