Are there any experts on Game theory out there? Specifically, involving Nash's equilibrium, and the whole concept of how all players will act in a way to attempt to maximize their own individual success. What happens though if one player foregoes maximizing their own chances in order to try to help the other players instead of themselves in the game. Is this an available option? What happens in Game theory if this choice is made?

https://www.wired.com/2016/06/people-want-self-driving-cars-save-lives-especially/all/1quote:So what kind of god do people want as a chauffeur? The study found most people think driverless should minimize the total number of deaths, even at the expense of the occupants. The respondents stuck to that utilitarian thinking, although some decisions were harder than others. “It seems that from the responses people gave us, saving their coworkers was not a priority,” says Jean-Francois Bonnefon of the Toulouse School of Economics. But overall, “do the greater good” always won, even with children in the car.

There's other people out there that think this way too right? I'm not the only one?

Herman Merman posted:You don't need to understand game theory to use it you fool, just ask any redditor and/or libertarian I think I have an understanding of it. It's a concept to help humanity explore why it is so hard to value others over yourself? Or rather, how brave and nice of a thing it is to be willing to give your life in order to help save/preserve a balance of other life, especially if your sacrifice or lack of action only prolongs the hurt. In situations like that the choice of self-sacrifice seems very obvious as the right choice to make, in order to make all the other players whole or happy with the results. I mean, I'm not advocating for people to do out and give till they're bled dry. I'm just speaking in these specific circumstances here, where specific choices avail themselves to the player(s).

Game theory allows for scenarios where you forego immediate gratification in return for a larger total reward, see the iterated prisoner's dilemma.

buckminster fuller took cold war era logic and i think some of nash's ideas and tried to create a game where the object of the game was to make sure that no one loses and EVERYONE WINS (Make the world work, for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone.)

Nash was a paranoid schizophrenic and his game theory experiments fell flat on his face when he tried it with secretaries at the Rand corporation. Instead of double-crossing each other the girls trusted each other and were fair and honest Pissed Nash off completely

George Orwell paraphrasing Henry George in The Road to Wigan Pier: The world is a raft sailing through space with, potentially, plenty of provisions for everybody; the idea that we must all cooperate and see to it that everyone does his fair share of the work and gets his fair share of the provisions seems so blatantly obvious that one would say that no one could possibly fail to accept it unless he had some corrupt motive for clinging to the present system. From a speech made by Adlai Stevenson to the UN in 1965: We travel together, passengers on a little space ship, dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air and soil; all committed for our safety to its security and peace; preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work, and, I will say, the love we give our fragile craft. We cannot maintain it half fortunate, half miserable, half confident, half despairing, half slave—to the ancient enemies of man—half free in a liberation of resources undreamed of until this day. No craft, no crew can travel safely with such vast contradictions. On their resolution depends the survival of us all. I mean... I'd like to email some 3 letter government organizations and try to help them towards a beautiful future here - but I'm just one person. I don't even know how they would react to me trying to communicate with them. Part of me wonders if they are already one step ahead of me. It wouldn't surprise me at all - to the point that I've been expecting that and tailoring my actions accordingly. Sometimes I wonder if the only reason I'm still around is because it's fairly obvious that I'm not really a threat. I guess the only kind of threat that could be implied is a change on a grand scale. I only ever acquired a BA in Sociology, so...not quite sure yet how to go about it, but the interest to help everyone involved is there. It's from the heart. So what would happen if I tried to communicate with the NSA, the FBI, the CIA. Do they have better things to do beyond listening to a harmless dreamer? I'm not sure they would be interested or not - though on the flipside, I don't want to invite harm of any sort.

VendaGoat posted:How would I have any knowledge of it? It would probably involve straight-up hours of writing, multiple pages of reading. I'm sure it would either be very spot on, or a hoot to read. I'm really not sure how to put the phenomena to words, but it's as if certain books, films, etc and what have you suddenly 'speak' to you in a certain way - or there is a presence that helps alert you to, well....what's 'really' going on, I guess. I'm not exactly sure how else to phrase it. It sounds straight up wacky, I'll admit it first. I don't really feel crazy. I can function fine. It's totally fine if nobody believes me, that's okay. The only thing that matters is that it's pretty well understood that I'm on the 'side' that benefits life in this universe. That's it - I'm on nobody else' side here. So I'm on your side, regardless of who it is that reads this message.

You know... This thread is asking me to read things. I don't like homework. I did poo poo today. In your secondary myopic aspect of only taking a 2 vs 2 aspect into consideration, the answer is yes. Stop, recompute for a greater variable then 2 and try again. poo poo starts to get hosed at 4, unless all parties are willing to work towards a prescribed... We already have this thread.

VendaGoat posted:You know... Lets take a look at the Stag hunt game VendaGoat From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stag_hunt Now these game theory games can often be applied to real life settings and scenarios - we just use 'stag/hare hunt' to sort of simplify the mechanics. But basically, as in the diagram - the players involved can either choose a choice that maximizes gain based on a fear/security way of thought, that is - 'I can choose a hare for 1 point. If my opponent chooses stag, he gets nothing, therefore I still come out on top with 1 point, and he or she looses.'. Choosing the stag option with such a mindset would imply that the owner of that mindset believes that the other player certainly wouldn't choose the stag as well, for if both players are playing with the desire to win over the other, it could be very likely that that player will choose a hare as well, thereby making me lose, and he/she win. So...yes, with that sort of way of perceiving things, you can be guaranteed a point, and that the chance that you make your opponent lose. You will not have the greater 2 points, but neither will your opponent, and there is a chance your opponent may have nothing at all. But if as a player, you choose to sacrifice 'winning the game' because you feel love instead of fear for the other player, and you hope that they will make the right choice because you truly, truly want them to 'win', in a sense - you choose the stag. If you lose, well...you lose. That's alright in your mind - even if it seems to fly in the face of conventional logic. In this scenario, the other player gets 1 point at the very least, but there is the small chance that the other player might see you with love in their hearts as well instead of fear, and makes the choice of stag as well. If that happens. You both have something happen that never would have been able to happen before - you both get 2 points! Yay. It seems like such an obvious choice to me. Doesn't it to you as well? I could see a very advanced form of life trying to use this sort of puzzle to help other forms of life realize the beautify in such a puzzle and how you come to the solution that has more harmony. Edit: Also, in regard to games involving more than 2 players - my answer would still be the same - the belief in trying to help that player/civilization over time realize the beauty in functioning on a harmony based order between everyone involved. I guess I'd just lose the game a lot. :x Sunset fucked around with this message at 00:20 on Sep 6, 2016 |
