So a few months back I found a study that tried to do the "mirror test for consciousness" on ants. I remember not being very impressed with the journal where it was published, though I found the topic fascinating.
Anton Petrov has now mentioned this study in one of his videos, which means it's going to spread more.
So... how do the ant people feel about this?

@futurebird @alexwild @MyrmecolNews I’m generally unimpressed with the mirror test. I imagine that sapient dogs would be very unimpressed that humans can’t recognize the smell of their own urine.
