I guess that makes sense, is there like a “queen” and “workers” or something? I guess i dont know much about insect social structures, i might be thinking anout bees specifically.
Real bees don’t have a sci-fi style hivemind, they communicate through dance and they’re a democracy. A more accurate term for the queen would be “mum”. Her job is to make babies, she doesn’t get to make any big decisions.

So it’s more like a shared consciousness among many bodies? (My only exposure to the concept of sci-fi style hivemind is starcraft zerg faction.)
Yeah, exactly like the Zerg. They gave me feelings when I was a kid that I didn’t understand until I grew up.
