The Game of Chicken
Abstract
Behavior in a game simulating brinksmanship and appeasement is analyzed as a function of varying parameters in the game and as over-time trends. Anatol Rapoport is Professor of Mathematical Biology and Senior Research Mathematician at the Mental Health Research Institute, University of Michigan. He is the author of Fights, Games and Debates; Strategy and Conscience, and co-author of Prisoner's Dilemma. Albert M. Chammah is also at MHRI, as Assistant Research Mathematical Psychologist, he is co-author of Prisoner's Dilemma.

“…or access the same services for their respective users (e.g. an online platform for booking concert tickets) may encounter ‘com-mitment problems,’ in which one AI assistant forces another to take a suboptimal course of action by credibly commit-ting to a particular course of action first [104].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
