Ants are really interesting characters if we are thinking of evolution

Ants are really interesting characters if we are thinking of evolution

Ants and termites, what also are ants are interesting characters. Those social, wingless bugs are defending their base with a very big attitude, and some of them even die, when they are defending their queen and home. One of the most interesting characters in that community, where everybody would put their stakes to the work of the day is military ants.

Military- or soldier ants are the very aggressive version of ants, and their mission is to defend others. But how those ants would control those soldiers? Their jaws are terrifying and attitude is deadly, but why they are not attacking the workers? That is because the worker would feed that terrifying member of the community.

If the soldier ant would be aggressive, there would be the situation, that another worker comes to the place, and then those ants would relax that horrifying defender of the community. They are telling that everything is fine, and nobody would not threaten the position of that specific ant. And then those worker ants would give a small bite of sugar to the warrior.

That keeps soldier ant satisfied, and there is one little thing about that soldier ant, what protects the entire community. They cannot eat themselves, and those ants are not using their jaws to anything else than just fighting. Military ants cannot even eat, because in their stomach is not bacteria, what is necessary for eating, or transformation of the food to nutrient.

Ants are given an idea to nanomachines, what his group of robots, what are operating like one giant robot. This kind of robot can lose one part of it, and it can still operate. That poly- or swarm robot would also be more flexible than any other device in human history.

But the ants have given ideas of the society, where everybody has their place, and one of those workers, who would work in that futuristic society is the data worker, who would sit in the space station and control the drones and other devices on the Earth. In this hypothetical scenario, those data workers cannot escape or rebel, because they are addicted to the nutrient, what will bring from Earth.

When we are thinking about evolution, the ants have learned the communal working. In their society, every single ant has own duty. And if the duty is defending the society, those bugs would not do anything else.

In the next part, the world "future" can be replaced by the world "other civilization". What we will do and what we are looking in the distant future is a mystery, and without time machine we cannot find that out, how our decadents would live thousands of years after us. The evolution of ants has given the idea that maybe the future would bring to the world the real-life information workers, who are operating in the giant orbiting space station.

Those space stations would need the food from Earth, and that thing would keep them under the control. And those workers would operate the drones and robots on Earth. The thing is that if those controllers connection with robots must be cut, the thing, what the people on Earth must do is just jam the communication lines. If those operators would spend all of their life in the space station, their bones and muscles would be so weak, that those inmates would be dead, if they land to the Earth.

And in one scenario those characters would not have even consoles, and their brains are connected to the computers by using surgically installed microchips. They would also offer their brain capacity to solve problems, and if there would be a problem, the operator, who sits on Eart can just cut the connection of the microchip. The idea is that in those space stations would live people, whose brains can be connected, and that will gove those systems extremely high level of intelligence and ability to solve problems.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
