What REM Sleep’s Energy Paradox Tells Us About AI-Assisted Rest
A new study from Tohoku University found that during REM sleep, neuronal energy levels drop even as blood flow and metabolic inputs surge — an ‘energy paradox’ that challenges the brain-as-battery model underlying most AI productivity design. If the brain’s most restorative state is also its most metabolically counterintuitive, the assumption that AI offloading conserves… Read more
