During World War I, peace broke out.

It was Christmas 1914 on the Western Front.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Despite strict orders <i>not</i> to chill out with the enemy, British<br>
|
|
|
|
|
and German soldiers left their trenches, crossed No Man's Land,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
and gathered together to bury their dead, to exchange gifts, to sing.

Meanwhile: it's 2017, the West has been at peace for decades, and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
we're less trusting than ever. Fewer and fewer people say they trust their<br>
|
|
|
|
|
governments, their media, or even <i>each other</i>. So here's our puzzle:

I think game theory can help explain our epidemic of distrust –<br>

and how we can fix it! So, to understand all this...

You have one choice.
|
|
|
|
|
In front of you is a machine: if you put a coin in the machine,
|
|
|
|
|
the <i>other player</i> gets three coins – and vice versa.
|
|
|
|
|
You both can either choose to COOPERATE (put in coin), or CHEAT (don't put in coin).

If you cooperate & they cheat, you lose a coin while they gain three. (score: -1 vs +3)
|
|

However, if you both cheat, neither of you gain or lose anything. (score: 0 vs 0)

Because if you both cooperate, you both give up a coin to gain three. (score: +2 vs +2)

That's why "peace" could emerge in the trenches of World War I:
|
|
|
|
|
when you're forced to play the same game with the

|
|
|
|
same <i>specific people</i> (not just the same generic "enemy") over and over again --

<span class="tft">Copycat</span> doesn't just win the battle, it wins the war.

That's right: the <span class="all_d">Always Cheats</span> became a victim of their own success!
|

|

They exploited the naive <span class="all_c">Always Cooperaters</span>,

By simply copying the other player's moves,

<span class="tft">Copycats</span> can play nice with each other,

|
while <span class="all_d">Always Cheats</span> just cheat themselves.

|

Not only that, but it also means <span class="tft">Copycat</span>
|
|
|

can give <span class="all_d">Always Cheat</span>
|
|
|
|

a taste of their own medicine.

So, although your bet was off -- the nice-but-naive <span class="all_c">Always Cooperaters</span>

were doomed from the start -- in the end, a <i>smart</i> form of niceness prevailed,

So, in the short run you were right - <span class="all_d">Always Cheat</span> won the first few rounds,

In 1985, when Americans were asked how many close friends they had,
|
|
|
|
|
the most common answer was "three". In 2004, the most common answer was <i>"zero"</i>.
|
2017-07-18 18:39:53 +00:00
|
|
|
|
We now have fewer friends across class, racial, economic, and political lines,
|
|
|
|
|
because we have fewer friends -- <i>period.</i>
|
|
|
|
|
And as you just discovered for yourself,
|
2017-07-17 22:32:02 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<b>the fewer "repeat interactions" there are, the more distrust will spread.</b>

(no, mass media doesn't count:
|
|
|
|
|
it must be <i>two-way</i> interactions between <i>specific individuals</i>.)

2017-07-17 22:32:02 +00:00

So even if the reward for getting a "win-win" is still <i>more</i>
|

than the punishment for a "lose-lose"...

I think, as a culture, we're losing the value of finding "win-wins".

We're more interested in "win-lose", because viciousness gets views, conflict gets clicks.

As cool as <span class="tft">Copycat</span> is, it has a huge, fatal weakness I haven't mentioned yet.
|
2017-07-19 22:49:53 +00:00

To understand it, let's say two <span class="tft">Copycats</span> are playing against each other:

Being "nice" players, both their first moves will be:

<p id="noise_2">

2017-07-19 22:49:53 +00:00

TRUST:
|
|
|
|
|
- repeated interaction:
|
|
|
|
|
- win-win:
|
|
|
|
|
- dealing with mistakes: forgive, and try to be clear and honest yourself
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DISTRUST:
|
|
|
|
|
- loss of social capital
|
|
|
|
|
- win-lose, use versus them, zero-sum
|
|
|
|
|
- gleefully punishing even small mistakes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But above all, there's also...

Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Game theory lesson.
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Short term: game changes players. But don't be cynical
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Long term: players change game, from the bottom up -- evolution.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
So if we wanna cure our epidemic of distrust,
|
|
|
|
|
and rebuild a trusting & trustworthy civic society, it's up to all of <i>us.</i>
|
|
|
|
|
Let's all learn and act to find win-wins,
|
|
|
|
|
to create repeated interactions,
|
|
|
|
|
(and...)
