“There’s a type of ant in some colonies that does nothing but eat and eat. The other ants feed it, and its belly swells and becomes perfectly spherical. It’s like a living food repository. These ants are called repletes. “Creatives” kind of reminds me of that. It’s like, in the human ant colony, this guy over here produces new ideas. [laughs] But he doesn’t produce new ideas the way a scientist does. There’s something else going on.”
