Thankfully the idea is unrealistic.

Ants are the only creatures on Earth besides humans that have built a civilization - they farm, build cities, store and cook food and generally do all the things we classify as "intelligence".

They do this while lacking any brains in the conventional sense; in any case, whatever the number of neurons in an ant colony is, it is surely orders of magnitude less than the number in our deep learning networks.

At this point us trying to make artificial intelligence is like Daedalus trying to master flight by gluing feathers on his arms.
