“Many of the problems that humans face are not merely technological, but require us to coordinate in society and in our economies for the greater good,” says “One thing we found surprising was that the AI learned a policy that reflects a mixture of views from across the political spectrum,” saysWhen there was the highest inequality between players at the start, a “liberal egalitarian” policy – which redistributed money according to the proportion of starting funds each player contributed, but didn’t discourage free-riders – proved as popular as the AI proposal, by getting more than 50 per cent of the vote share in a head-to-head contest.
