- great topic! maybe 'tit for tat' catpures only the retaliation part, while 'copy kitten strategy' addresses both (nice & retaliate)
- I think also worth pointing out that often we don't realize if the situation is a Game OR we don't take time to decide that if we really need to play it (reward is desirable/worth our time OR is It just for a good feeling eg. revenge/ getting a small bargain by spending more time).
- Question: I think 'starting nice' or 'forgiving' becomes much easier when we acknowledge that we might not know where the other person is coming from (giving a benefit of doubt) and people can change. But also these qualifications make switching-decisions (nice to retaliate) very subjective? and that's where most people struggle, at least I do. In that case Golden rule makes sense, instead of putting too much energy to evaluate the rival, and just keep being nice, that might force the rival to consider co-operation? But of course, if the rival is clearly hostile, one shouldn't be stupid.
Interesting. Currently looking for a good book to read on game theory - any personal recommendations from you or any particular book u personally adore on the subject?
