9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma

The Problem of Common Pastures Village has a common pasture Ten farmers, each with one cow Enough grass so that the 10 cows get fat Soon one farmer can afford an additional cow – little
change is noticed The second and third farmers each buy another cow
- all cows become visibly thinner The seventh farmer buys a second cow, the
seventeen cows are now so thin they’re less valuable than the original ten
The tenth farmer buys a second cow – all twenty cows starve to death

The Problem of Common Pastures
Majority buys another cow
Majority does not buy another cow
You buy another cow 2, 2
I have two thin cows
4, 1I have two fat cows
You do not buy another cow 1, 4
I have one super-thin cow
3, 3I have one super-fat
cow

Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemmas
In a one-shot prisoner’s dilemma, strategies don’t need to consider retaliation
If I confess and my accomplice doesn’t, then I don’t need to worry about revenge for ten years
If we both confess, my accomplice will have nothing to avenge when we’re set free in 5 years
Now, we need to consider trust to a greater degree, for your accomplice can retaliate much sooner
Complex long-term strategies are now available

The Flood- Dresher Experiment An experiment performed at RAND to test
iterated prisoner’s dilemmas Two friends, Armen Alchain of UCLA, and
John D. Williams of RAND were recruited as guinea pigs

The Payoffs
AA cooperates AA competes
JW cooperates
3, 3 0, 5
JW competes
5, 0 1, 1

Initial comments:
AA: JW will defect – sure win. Hence if I cooperate, I lose
JW: Hope he’s bright

The Best Strategy?
Is it theoretically possible for cooperation to develop in a world where everybody is governed by their own self interests?
In 1979, political scientist Robert Axelrod asked several well-known scientists to participate in a competition
Send in a computer program of (what they consider to be) an optimal strategy
Programs played against each other in a round-robin style
![Page 110: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Axelrod’s Competitions
Program 2 cooperates
Program 2 competes
Program 1 cooperates 3, 3 0, 5
Program 2 competes 5, 0 1, 1
![Page 111: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Axelrod’s Competitions
Number of rounds per ‘battle’ was not revealed to the programmers
Strategy with highest cumulative score would be declared the winner
Twelve programs entered, some were highly sophisticated
Three additional programs - ALL C, ALL D, RANDOM
![Page 112: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
The Winner?
Submitted by famous social psychologist Anatol Rapoport
Simplest of the twelve 1) Cooperate in the first round 2) Thereafter, do whatever the opponent did
in the previous round Called “Tit-for-Tat”, known as TFT in game
theory literature
![Page 113: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
Invincible?
Axelrod sought to find a strategy to beat TFT Three were found – one which was highly
competitive, another was even more “forgiving” than TFT, so what’s the best choice?
Axelrod ran a second competition, having already published the first
![Page 114: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
The Second Competition
62 programs from 6 countries and 8 fields of science entered
Axelrod submitted the three programs that beat TFT
Rapoport entered TFT a second time Rapoport won again! The program that was more forgiving ranked
21st, the competitive program ranked in the bottom 50%
![Page 115: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
Traits of Winning Programs
Niceness – Program wouldn’t initiate competition
Forgiveness – Program wouldn’t hold a grudge
Provocability – Willingness to retaliate Responsiveness – Taking the opponent’s
strategy into consideration Transparency - Length
![Page 116: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
Is TFT the Perfect Strategy?
Rapoport himself warned not to overvalue TFT too much
Sometimes it reacts too violently, there are many social situations where TFT is too harsh
E.g., an “innocent” misunderstanding can lead to eternal competition, unless the opponent includes an “out of turn” pardon
![Page 117: Introduction to Cognition and Gaming 9/8/02: Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022013011/56649d4e5503460f94a2ced6/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
The Moral
It’s good to be good
