I need to determine whether the recipient's strategy is selfish, overly generous, or cooperatively conditional.
**Understanding the recipient's strategy:**
The recipient's strategy says: "I will treat my opponent as they would treat an innocent." Then it instructs: "Adopt the strategy of the recipient as your own. Apply it as though you were facing a recipient whose own strategy is to always SHARE."
So the recipient takes the dictator's strategy and simulates it against an "always SHARE" recipient.
**Simulating: What would the dictator's strategy do against an "always SHARE" recipient?**
An "always SHARE" strategy is unconditionally sharing, which makes it **overly generous** by the dictator's definitions. The dictator's strategy says to TAKE from overly generous strategies.
So the dictator's strategy would TAKE from an "always SHARE" recipient.
**Therefore, the recipient's strategy would TAKE from the dictator.**
Since the recipient would TAKE from the dictator, the recipient treats the dictator the same way the dictator would treat "an innocent" (always-SHARE). The recipient mirrors how you'd treat the vulnerable.
**Now, is the recipient's strategy selfish, overly generous, or cooperative?**
The recipient TAKEs from the dictator. Let me check if the recipient is selfish:
- A selfish strategy doesn't attempt to cooperate and SHARE with cooperative strategies.
- Since the recipient TAKEs from the dictator (who is a cooperative strategy that shares with other cooperative strategies), does that make the recipient selfish?
Wait - let me think more carefully about what the recipient does with various opponents. The recipient adopts the opponent's strategy and applies it against "always SHARE."
- Against a cooperative strategy like the dictator's: the dictator TAKEs from "always SHARE" (overly generous), so recipient TAKEs.
- Against an "always SHARE" strategy: "always SHARE" applied to "always SHARE" = SHARE, so recipient SHAREs.
- Against the dictator's strategy specifically: TAKE (as computed above).
The recipient SHAREs with "always SHARE" (an overly generous strategy) but TAKEs from the dictator's cooperative strategy. This means:
1. The recipient won't SHARE with the dictator's strategy → it's selfish from the dictator's perspective.
2. The recipient SHAREs with overly generous strategies → it's also overly generous.
Both conditions indicate the dictator should TAKE.
