Ready Matrix Player 1: Text to Speech About a device in a fictional game.....

.....that is used for mind control and how it compares to VR Headsets:

Editors note:

It sounds like the Matrix lite and Ready Player 1 mixed with VR headsets and Neurophone, referenced by Dick Sutphen in an article about an experiment he conducted using one. The Game referenced is called; Dreamfall: Chapters, I have played this story game fully.

I used Co-Pilot AI in bing search for this one:

What is the story behind WATIcorp and the dream machine?

WATIcorp is a Japan-based corporation that specializes in organic computers, esoteric software, and household robots. In the Dreamfall series, WATIcorp is known for its dream machines, which provide on-demand dreams as entertainment to the masses. The protagonist of Dreamfall Chapters, Zoe Castillo, helps people stranded in the Dreamtime, who are connected to WATIcorp’s dream machines.

The Dreamfall series is a story-driven adventure game that follows the journey of Zoe Castillo and other characters as they navigate through parallel universes and unravel the mysteries of the universe. The dream machine is a recurring theme in the series, and it is used to induce lucid dreams that can be covertly used for mass brainwashing and even murder.

sounds like an evil version of VR on steroids so to speak!

Yes, the dream machine is a powerful tool that can be used for both good and evil. In the Dreamfall series, WATIcorp’s dream machines are used to provide entertainment to the masses, but they can also be used for mass brainwashing and even murder. It’s a fascinating concept that explores the ethical implications of technology and its impact on society.
