How many people knew that evidential decision theory recommends cooperating in a one-shot prisoner’s dilemma where the choices of the two agents playing are highly (positively) correlated?
I apparently just independently invented evidential decision theory while bored in my micro class by thinking “why wouldn’t you condition your uncertainty about others’ on what you choose? The cooperation between rational players in PDs can clearly happen.” This sounded suspiciously like what evidential decision theory should be, and lo and behold, after class I found out that it is.
