Do hive mind organisms exist?
Does anyone have any experience or in depth knowledge on them?

Ants are a hive mind

Holy fuck, those arms
I feel like anonymous communication such as 4chan sort of creates a hivemind. Maybe that's the next step in evolution

Fuck, then 20 years from now all humans will be dead.

It really depends on what you mean by hivemind.
If you mean "a single conscious entity spread out and controlling lots of distinct bodies" - then no. There are zero known hiveminds of this nature. The queen ant/bee does not control the hive any more than the worker or soldier does.
If by hivemind you mean "lots of simple individuals acting on instinct create an emergent behavior for the entire group that demonstrates a versatility and intelligence beyond that of any individual in the group" then you've got ants, bees, termites, human cities, schools of fish, flocks of birds, and so on.

They call themselves "christians"

And you know some black guy had sex with that. They will have sex with anything. ANYTHING.
>>18471261
she's the queen bee
What about all the living cells of an individuals body? They all work for the brain.

That definition of Hivemind seems logically too fantastical to be realistic at all.
Ants communicate with other ants with the use of pheromones and create intrinsic channels of these biologically distinct agents, that only ants can use, specifically those originating from the queen.
The entire process is a fractal of what you mentioned. Define consciousness. These ants create such a connection that they parallel functions of a working brain, and expand with information, which is obtained through time and space.

Well, maybe it is not the definition of a true hivemind, but it is pretty close right? Ok so no telepathic leader, but can that same type of ant functioning be use towards other species? Such as humans?

Humanity is a high latency hive mind (when compared to a single human mind)

Now, jokes aside, I am linking this paper, which is of interest to this topic.

Very interesting, ants are also frequently used as reference to the 2nd and 3rd dimension.

More like all the individual cells in your body work for your sperm/eggs. Having a brain just increases the success rate of your sex cells.

Yes. Migrant workers

You should try the first theory out. You have to enter it. Buddahs call it the public mind. Youll be god, but theres a catch to it. You cant just turn it on and off at will unless you have a strong mind.
