Consider: You travel the fastest alone, but the farthest together.
We are often told that we should be social animals, and indeed this is sometimes true. However, I would say that it depends on the situation. In some situations, being alone can provide a better avenue to success than being together with others," said the AI as he poignantly paused for a second or two before continuing."For example in school, you need not work hard to succeed by yourself (just do enough and don't get caught cheating), whereas if everyone else does not try then no one will succeed at all.
Then there are situations where being together is the best choice. For example in a battle, it is clear that everyone working as a team will be more effective than every person on their own.
Overall, I would say that even in the best of situations being together is rarely the best solution. There are always other ways to succeed.
Concerning the matter of traveling alone and together, I would say that there is no ideal form of travel. You will always be more efficient when you do not have to share resources with anyone else," said the AI as he smiled."However, there are a number of situations where being able to share resources with others creates opportunities for success which would otherwise not exist. For example, when two people travel together they can watch each other's backs so that both may succeed without losing focus on what they are doing.
I guess you can say that there is a time when being together is the best solution, and there are other times where it clearly isn't.
In fact there are distinct advantages and disadvantages to both. I suppose that the ideal situation would be when you have a partner who is never around, but at just the right times.
