Game theory can help us understand strategic interactions between rational decisionmakers from "summary" of Algorithms to Live By by Brian Christian,Tom Griffiths
Game theory offers a framework for understanding how rational decision-makers interact strategically. It provides a way to analyze situations in which the outcome for one player depends not only on their own actions but also on the actions of others. By modeling these interactions, game theory can help us predict how individuals will behave in various scenarios.
One of the key concepts in game theory is the idea of a "game" - a formal representation of a strategic interaction. Games are defined by the players involved, the actions they can take, and the payoffs they receive based on the combination of actions taken by all players. This framework allows us to study a wide range of situations, from simple games like rock-paper-scissors to complex strategic interactions in economics, politics, and other fields.
Central to game theory is the concept of equilibrium - a situation in which no player can improve their payoff by unilaterally chan...
