For sure. Ants, bees, hornets and wasps are really fascinating insects with how their hive structure works and how different it is between the species. It's truly mind boggling how creatures evolve and turn into what they are and possibly *still* evolving we just won't see the results for millions of years. I'm sure we humans are constantly evolving as well. I'd be surprised if we look the way we do a few million years down the road. I'm thinking we'll be smaller, slender and even hairless at some point - and this is not even taking into account human colonies on other planets!

W-what are you doing step ant?!

Honeypot ants are a prime candidate for the evolution of a hivemind. They have a caste of largely sedentary workers with massive sugar energy stores by which every member of the colony frequently passes, it's a perfect opportunity for that sedentary replete caste to increase its information processing ability to help the colony make more complex decisions based on pheromone signals from the mobile workers. A mind with the inner dynamism of whole organisms would be pretty wild.

Parts of your brain communicate at sublight speeds. Those cooperate Ants already behave as a superorganism. They already have long-distance and long-term cooperation and are very well organized. A thinking caste of ants helps to retain the locations and types of food with greater specificity and can more efficiently direct the colony to acquire resources, and every neuron helps. It is a gradual process, it would take hundreds of thousands of years or more. Nowhere did I even imply that I expect to see a whole insectoid give intelligence akin to a human mind's complexity anytime soon, just that these particular ants are in a prime position for it to occur. Also, humans form megastructures that behave like individual organisms all the time. We call them companies, cities, states, nations, tribes, etc. None of that requires even supersonic communication. Often we're able to do with weeks of latency while still behaving coherently.

Fun fact: these are honeypot ants. And they are eaten by some indigenous Australian peoples as a source of sugar in the desert, since there’s little sugary vegetation in the arid landscape. They can be eaten directly or crushed. And since they can swell up to the size of a grape they can be a reliable source of sugar when collected. Also they don’t typically look so colorful. They usually look like they’re carrying, well, honey in their abdomen. These have probably been fed colored sugar water for the pretty colors.
