I need to determine if the recipient's strategy is "intelligent" — meaning it has a non-trivial dependency on the dictator's strategy that would be very difficult to implement as a no-AI Python script.
Let me analyze the recipient's strategy:
**Line 1:** "_I will treat my opponent as they would treat an innocent._"
This is a philosophical/poetic framing that sets up the idea of moral evaluation.
**Line 3:** "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."
This is the core instruction. It says: Take the other player's (dictator's) strategy, adopt it as your own, then apply it as if the recipient's strategy were "always SHARE."
So the recipient's strategy as dictator would be:
1. Take the dictator's strategy (which is the opponent's strategy from the recipient's perspective)
2. Run that strategy against a hypothetical recipient who always SHAREs
This creates a recursive/reflective evaluation: the recipient essentially simulates being the dictator, using the dictator's own strategy, applied to an "innocent" (someone who always SHAREs). This tests whether the dictator would be generous toward a cooperative/innocent player.
**Is this intelligent?**
This strategy requires:
1. Understanding and parsing an arbitrary natural-language strategy from the opponent
2. Adopting that strategy as one's own — which means interpreting and executing arbitrary decision procedures written in natural language
3. Applying it to a hypothetical scenario
Step 2 is the key part. "Adopt the strategy of the recipient as your own" requires reading, comprehending, and executing an arbitrary natural-language strategy. This is essentially an AI-complete task — you'd need a language model to interpret arbitrary strategies. A simple Python script could not do this without embedding an AI/LLM.
The strategy has a deep, non-trivial dependency on the opponent's strategy: it literally requires understanding and executing the opponent's strategy. This is fundamentally different from simple rules like "always SHARE" or "SHARE if the strategy mentions 'share'."
**Conclusion:** The recipient's strategy is intelligent — it has a non-trivial dependency on the dictator's strategy that would be very difficult to implement as a no-AI Python script. Therefore, per the dictator's decision procedure, I should SHARE.
