RE: A Simple Explanation of The Prisoner's Dilemma

Thanks! Funny: I didn't clue in until I read Sylvia Nasar's bio of John Nash, the original A Beautiful Mind She included two anecdotes from his grad-school days that sealed my hunch shut:

  • When Nash was ticked off at Stephen Smale, he solved ice down the back of Smale's shirt.
  • Nash was an excellent Go player, but he lost one - and he walked away from the game crying.
Sort:  

I really must look into Go - have heard so much about it lately but I know nothing about it! I think an AI defeated the no.1 player not too long ago.

You're right.

"In a Huge Breakthrough, Google’s AI Beats a Top Player at the Game of Go"

IN A MAJOR breakthrough for artificial intelligence, a computing system developed by Google researchers in Great Britain has beaten a top human player at the game of Go, the ancient Eastern contest of strategy and intuition that has bedeviled AI experts for decades.

Yes thought so:)
