This course focuses on the key concepts in game theory, and attempts to outline the informal basic ideas that are often hidden behind mathematical definitions.
Game theory provides a general framework to describe and analyze how individuals behave in such “strategic” situations. The course uses very little mathematics, and it is ideal for those who are looking for a conceptual introduction to game theory.īusiness competition, political campaigns, the struggle for existence by animals and plants, and so on, can all be regarded as a kind of “game,” in which individuals try to do their best against others. Our main goal is to understand the basic ideas behind the key concepts in game theory, such as equilibrium, rationality, and cooperation. Until now.This course provides a brief introduction to game theory. We have struggled to find a suitable replacement. A previous hire has been unable - or unwilling - to perform the tasks laid before him. You ARE aware that you've proven yourself to be of extraordinary value. As a consequence of your action, this entity will continue. Unless…Unless you were to take matters into your own hands. This is the moment where you watch your father die. What if I could offer you something you don't know you want? Too large, given the interests of my employers. That would be a considerably large nudge. They authorize me to… nudge things in a particular direction from time to time. Some believe the fate of our worlds is inflexible. Perhaps what I am is not as important as what I can offer you in exchange for coming all this way. You wouldn't need all that to imprison Gordon Freeman. I'm sure you can imagine there are worse alternatives. While I believe a civil servant like yourself understands the importance of… discretion, my employers are not quite so trusting, and rather than continually subject you to the irresistible human temptation of telling all, we have decided to…convey you to somewhere where you can do no possible harm, and where no harm can come to you. If for no other reason, I have argued to preserve you for a time. I admit I have a fascination with those who adapt and survive against all odds. The biggest embarrassment has been Black Mesa facility, but I think that's finally taken care of itself…īut there is still the lingering matter of witnesses. I cannot close my report until every loose end has been tied up.
I do hope you understand, and now I require a further indulgence on your part. Please, don't think that I've been avoiding you, a great many matters require my attention in these… troubled times.
