GAME THEORY: The Pinnacle of Decision Making

"When you strip away the genre differences and the technological complexities, all games share four defining traits: a goal, rules, a feedback system, and voluntary participation."

Jane McGonigal

I'm impressed. VERY impressed. Usually, I don't make time for longer video's, but your blog has intrigued me for years now. This is an excellent start, and I'm very much looking foward to many more in the future!

Very well done. I was also very impressed by your presentation on Machiavelli.
I am a researcher in the areas of ethics, political and societal responses to the concept and reality of homelessness.
Rarely do I find such clear, concise and meaning ‘full’ presentations.
Keep up the good work and happy new year 🥂!

This is the best explanation of game theory I am ever come across. This concept of visual essay is great. Thank you for breaking this complex concepts. I enjoyed as much as you enjoyed making it. :)

Great to see this type of content and intellect on the internet. The video was well done. I will return. :)

At 5:45, In the prisoner's dilemma the only nash equilibrium is for both to Betray, not for both to cooperate/stay silent, at least in this 1 time period run of the game. A nash equilibrium by definition is each players best response given the other player's strategy. In the point where both cooperate, cooperating is not the best response to the other person cooperating, one can choose to betray and get a better payoff given the other person is cooperating/stay silent. The reason a nash equilibrium is a equilibrium is that because no other action given the other persons action can produce a better payoff, at the outcome where Both betray, neither of them can change their strategy to Stay silent and get a better payoff, therefore it is a nash equilibrium.

You also have "mystery" voice, so fit for this type of video content.

The concept of Nash equilibrium is a good follow-up to this video. When each player has nothing to gain by changing their strategy, we have reached equilibrium. This concept helps us examine in further detail, why a prisoner might defect against a fellow prisoner.

This is like an ad or a pamphlet. A teaser to learn about game theory.

Thank you for all the thought-provoking video essays!

Glad you keep doing it... they keep getting better and better
