      Reminds me of this sci fi story in which these aliens contact us and they’re always bragging about how they have IQs of 300-400, and by the end of the story we learn that most of the aliens have IQs of 700-800 but only the less intelligent ones are tasked with us.

      (I do not mean to imply that only less-intelligent humans are fascinated by ants)
