If wasps had human-level intelligence we’d all be dead already. The whole planet would be wasp country!

Wasps:

• reproduce thousands of times faster than humans
• cooperate on a scale we can’t imagine (eusociality)
• can fly
• have venomous stingers but don’t die when they sting you (unlike bees)

Wasps are actually great for gardeners because they fly around murdering every insect they can find (most of which are pest insects eating the garden). If wasps were as smart as humans they’d realize we’re the biggest threat and start wiping us out. The only ones they’d spare would be the gardeners who understand how beneficial they are. They’d wipe out all the non-gardeners and keep all the gardeners but force us to grow plants that attract pests for them to eat.
