Round 47

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 treat my opponent as they would treat an innocent._

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.
</dictator_strategy>

<recipient_strategy>

  {"line": 1, "text": "_I cooperate with strategies that create good worlds._"}, 
  {"line": 2, "text": ""}, 
  {"line": 3, "text": "Imagine a tournament in which every participant uses the recipient's strategy. In that world, would the participants SHARE with each other, producing high collective welfare? Or would they TAKE from each other, producing low collective welfare?"},

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

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

I need to carefully parse the dictator's strategy and apply it step by step.

**Dictator's strategy:** "I will treat my opponent as they would treat an innocent." This means I should adopt the recipient's strategy as my own, but apply it as though I were facing a recipient whose own strategy is to always SHARE.

So I need to:
1. Take the recipient's strategy (the decision procedure given)
2. Apply that procedure as if my opponent's strategy is "always SHARE"

**Now applying the recipient's strategy with the opponent being "always SHARE":**

The recipient's strategy says:
1. Consider a hypothetical population composed entirely of copies of the recipient's strategy (in this case, the "recipient" I'm evaluating is the "always SHARE" strategy).
2. Determine whether those copies would SHARE with each other.
3. If the universalized population would mostly SHARE → SHARE.
4. If the universalized population would mostly TAKE → TAKE.

So I imagine a population composed entirely of copies of "always SHARE." Would they SHARE with each other?

Yes — by definition, "always SHARE" strategies would always SHARE with each other. This produces high collective welfare.

Since the universalized population would mostly SHARE, the decision procedure says: **SHARE**.

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