amazing
¡Fascinante!
omf wow
Stupid ants. I solved this puzzle almost twice as fast.

meanwhile 😂😂
This is both amazing, inspiring, and unsettling for some reason. Thanks for sharing!
The famous natural order...
most humans are so arrogant that often do not acknowledge the intelligence of other species in this planet, there are some fascinating studies about how other species communicate... If you follow only fiat science, most probably you never heard of it, Rupert Sheldrake comes to mind , check his book about dogs (

His site with tons of Intel, rest a bit from the Eco chamber of lies of fiat science :

Crazy. boggles the mind.
Emergent order? Distributed consciousness?
Staff!
Amazing. Why are they doing it? Is there reward associated with the object being on the right side?
Incredible
Found something. The physorg article says "They joined because they were misled into thinking that the heavy load was a juicy edible morsel that they were transporting into their nest."
Now that is a great question. It’s fun to watch, but trial and error is not some form of higher intelligence. Why did the group persist though?
Without an objective, it would be just like Brownian motion.
lol of course, they were tricked into it
Don't know about that, if not edited that video appears to show more than trial and error (which would involve more senseless repetition).
Looks like a mosh pit 😆😂
Ok, that is cool...who knew?

That's what I assumed. The reason to persist is to bring a big piece of food back to the colony.
hahaha keep rocking till the end
This moment, when they pull it out and go like "let's try from the other side" makes me uncomfortable with my own understanding of intelligence
Just a personal opinion but to me intelligence would be based on the fact that they learned their strategy during previous attempts and/or they carry this strategy forward to future attempts.
In isolation we know nothing else about why they succeeded other than trial and error. If they were not successful we would be more inclined to ignore it and move on.

Woah
Imagine the amount of communication and coordination required to pull this off. wow!
For all GLORY TO THE QUEEN!!!
Emergent effects is where the signal truly is.
This is so cool in multiple levels.

The implication here of how much communication and coordination is going on here is wild. Shows how insanely little we understand about them. They are a networked species for certain.
Nostr hive mind
gif buddy fixes this, mostly 🤙
crazy
Amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Do you know if this experiment compared humans on different settings of organization?
So glad spiders don't do this
Merry Christmas.
Not sure I get this. What is the incentive for the ants to thread that through the gaps apart from blocking the way?
Impressionnant

we should ask them to build a nostr client.
Read Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky for more like this. 🤯
Fun and rather out there scifi.
Ants solve problems better than governments.
Central planning can get bent.
I like this
God
No kidding.
fascinating
Is this how God feels of us? 😂
