Hmm, depends on what you mean by useful. I think lucid dreaming is:
a) very fun
b) useful for becoming more rational,, but only in a somewhat limited way-- it can be very good for training noticing confusion but doesn't seem to have a huge amount of potential beyond this.
By useful, I mean, can I use it to:
Practice a speech?
Deliberate about a decision with imagined famous people?
Get more comfortable around people of high status?
