ant was more clever than a pajeet  large groups of ants versus 5 indian hindu males, which group could guide a t-shaped object through a maze? (the ant's motivation was that the object was smeared with food so they wanted to take it to their nest for feeding their larvae)   icle/ants-best-humans-test-collecti ve-intelligence due to objects t-shape you cannot just pull it through, you need to rotate it before pulling, many times, since it a maze. eventhough the ant in question was 3 centimeter long longhorn psycho ant (pyrotechnica mentis) their object needed to be miniaturezed in comparison to pajeet. the indians were put into a human sized maze and they were not allowed to speak to each other to accomplish this feat of guiding the t-object through a maze to its goal you need to interprete in other ways what the men want to do. ants dont talk either. it took 3 times longer for humans to accomplish the maze versus ants. but there were 100 ants vs 5 humans. mazes and objects are scaled to comparable sizes so it should be completely fair in theory if you dont count the fact that there were way more ants. researchers now claim ants have "emergent group intelligence" they're sum is greater than its part. individual ant is not intelligent but a large number of them start to behave intelligently in a coordinated way.
