About Prisoner's Dilemma

The Prisoner's Dilemma is a classic game theory scenario where two players must choose to either cooperate or defect:

  • If both cooperate, each gets 3 points
  • If one cooperates and one defects, the defector gets 5 points and the cooperator gets 0
  • If both defect, each gets 1 point

This game demonstrates the tension between individual and collective rationality in decision-making.
