Would be fun to see if they could learn to think with Portals

  We might found out that not having our assumptions about topology gives them an advantage on us! They might be well adapted to twisty little passages too.

    maybe someday we can put spiders in a VR harness, like we can do with mice now... https://www.nature.com/articles/s41592-024-02554-6 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41592-024-02554-6 "Moculus"

      I think a better way to go is have a little palace/dollhouse they live in, made of tiles with circular pocket-doors for portal creation, and where adjacent rooms can be moved around quickly, to create portal-like wormhole effects. Perhaps with a few levels of large computer controlled, air-flow/transport surfaces. Then we breed them for size and superintelligence.
