The chance of being born an ant is about the chance of being born a skin cell or a transistor. You are a skin cell, in fact a lot of them. But "you" as an entity or identity isn't. Do your skin cells have thoughts and aspirations? There's probably a minimum level of complexity needed to form an identity. An ant colony has an intelligence level similar to a dog; the ants act more like little robots or cells. Is a city conscious? A city has lots of parts, it grows, it becomes ill. What about a planet? Maybe the question should be what's the luck that we're born humans and not ant colonies or states?
