Obviously this won't happen, but I find it interesting because, if Karl Friston's Free Energy Minimization model of consciousness is correct, succeeding at this would essentially reduce people to unconscious; awake and moving but completely zoned out and unaware. Sleepwalking in a more literal than metaphorical sense.
