A timelapse video from the Weizmann Institute of Science has revealed that when ants work in groups as one 'super-organism' they have the power to even outsmart humans
This article illustrates that even though individual humans outperformed individual ants in solving a puzzle, ant colonies, acting as a "super-organism," were more efficient and effective than groups of humans when collaborating on the same task.
The study highlights how ants' decentralized social structure and collaborative nature allow them to learn from mistakes and adapt their strategies, surpassing the limited communication and often "greedy" individual strategies of human groups.
