See my answers under the Computational Dreaming topic, including:
- How are metaphors handled in AI / NLP / ML?
- Will computers ever be able to think “out of the box”?
- Is it possible to explain metaphors using discourse analysis frameworks, or only with cognitive linguistic frameworks?
- Will a robot with an artificial intelligence parallel to a man’s have dreams?
- Why can’t a computer dream?
- Can we build a dream visualising machine using signal processing?
- How do we create artificial intelligence which dreams?
