When we are whole brain emulations in the cloud, we can experiment with upgrades to our hippocampus to work with alternate geometries. There's no particular reason to assume that our current one is optimal for thinking. Maybe different geometries are better for different tasks. We could match the dimensionality of the workspace to the problem space. Want to visualize 7 dimensional data? Project it in 7 dimensional space with your brain adjusted to make it feel natural.
