Also known as prisoners' dilemma, Grim strategies, trigger strategies
canonical example of a game analyzed in game theory
The prisoner's dilemma is a game theory scenario where two individuals each face a choice that tempts them to act in their own self-interest, yet if both do so, they end up worse off than if they had cooperated with each other. It matters because it reveals how logical individual decisions can lead to collectively poor outcomes, a pattern that applies to real-world situations from business competition to environmental protection.
