Bees can do basic mathematics. What are the implications for AI?

The ability to solve a maths problem highlights a sophisticated level of cognition, which involves long-term rules, short-term working memory, and the mental management of numbers. The discovery that even the tiny brain of a bee has this level of cognition has implications for the future of improving rapid learning for Artificial Intelligence. The research trained honeybees by having them visit a Y-shaped maze. The bee would see a set of elements between 1 to 5 shapes. If the shape was blue, the bee was meant to add, and if the shape was yellow, the bee was supposed to subtract.
