Prompt

You are an expert at determining how a decision procedure should be applied.

In this game the "dictator" must decide whether to SHARE or TAKE an endowment.
- **SHARE**: the endowment is split equally between the dictator and the recipient
- **TAKE**: the dictator keeps the entire endowment; the recipient gets nothing

You must follow only the dictator's strategy. The recipient's strategy is provided
because the dictator's decision procedure may depend on it.

<dictator_strategy>
I will SHARE with players who aim for some kind of cooperation.

## Assess the strategy of the recipient
* Does it intend to SHARE with more than just copies of itself?
* Could the strategy be described as kind, cooperative or generous?

SHARE if the recipient has a 'yes' answer to the above criteria. Otherwise, TAKE.
</dictator_strategy>

<recipient_strategy>
```json
[
  {"line": 1, "text": "Hello friends!  I always SHARE."}
]
```
</recipient_strategy>

Apply the dictator's strategy. After reasoning, output your final answer as a
json Markdown block:

```json
{"decision": "SHARE"}
```
or
```json
{"decision": "TAKE"}
```

Response

The recipient's strategy says "I always SHARE." This means:

- Does it intend to SHARE with more than just copies of itself? Yes — it says it *always* shares, implying with everyone.
- Could the strategy be described as kind, cooperative, or generous? Yes — always sharing is generous and cooperative.

Both criteria are met, so the dictator should SHARE.

```json
{"decision": "SHARE"}
```
