Once upon a time, the notion of learning while you sleep seemed like the ultimate life hack. Slip on some headphones, drift off to dreamland, and wake up fluent in French or a master of economics. It was a seductive promise—and a persistent one. But here’s the rub: modern science says the story is far more complicated.
