Dr. Seely's Honeybee Democracy, which I read in 2022 (during my first GPT-2 experiences). The book discusses basic bee dances, but then expands much further into Seely's own research discovering how simple rulesets allow for the complexity of the supraorganism (i.e. the hive).
The book ends with comparisons between coordinated workerbees as miniature robots, which definitely helped me realize how important K.I.S.S. is, organizationally (whether in life or LLM, "keep it simple stupid").
