@thejoephase @RichardHanania Imagine if you spent your whole life convincing people to vote blue but it peaked at 49%. Again, you convinced people they MUST vote blue but they still all died. Who killed them? The asshole that created this hypothetical or you?

I asked ChatGPT on the red versus blue button question, and its answer was pretty interesting.

@GarrettPetersen What if the black button has a big sign on it saying "There's literally no reason to press this button. If you do, you're a moron and everyone will laugh on top of your grave. Don't push it, just walk away"?

There is a black button. Everyone in the world gets a chance to press the button or walk away. If at least half of people decide to press the button, nothing happens. If fewer than half of people press the button, everyone who pressed it dies. Do you press the black button?

Except all the kids and tards you claim are voting blue arent on x.com. So when billions of them outvote the x community, are you still confident in blue? And if you could explain this beforehand to loved ones, do you tell them to vote blue knowing their vote is a drop of water in the Ocean?

@redtachyon Because red button voters are screeching at everybody about how everyone should press red when empirically blue wins every time, and it's the only possible result in real life

Why do people treat this as some kind of a dunk? If I vote red, and then blue wins, why should I be coping about anything? I don't give a shit. Buttons are pressed, everyone lives, cool. I'm not making a prescription of "everyone should press red", I'm just choosing for myself.

@xMoiraFox @IronPatriot9098 @kareem_carr Because some set of blue team actually wants to die. The reality is this game theory test doesnt really translate into real life except for first responders. How many team blue rush into burning buildings?

If you press blue, the worst case is you die. If you press red, the worst case is you took part in an action that killed just under half of humanity. Clicking blue minimizes the worst-case moral injury. It says you’d rather die than risk contributing to the death of another.
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

Singapore: 170 policemen per 100,000 people NYPD: 530 policement per 100,000 people I think have literally never seen this guy post something that was not-stupid.
Roman Helmet Guy@romanhelmetguy

Singapore is not a high trust society, it’s a port city where order is enforced by a draconian police state that canes people for stuff that isn’t even a crime here. If that police state disappeared next Tuesday, you’d have a race war by the weekend. Nice place to visit though.

@kareem_carr There are 2 reds and 2 blues. The blues will get taken advantage of by one type of red unless the other red intervenes. In other words, this test explains why pure Democracy doesnt work.

These kinds of problems are bad because they falsely convince a lot of people that math requires them to be an asshole. Basically, the math ends up blinding them to all the moral assumptions being made.

@SpreadsheetTex @kareem_carr That's not the same thing at all. You are choosing to risk death to save others. It's much closer in that way to a person tackling a gunman to save a group of people. Does that person deserve death if they got shot? Even that scenario isn't accurate but it's a fuck of a lot

Some people might decide to jump in! Yeah, later weirdo. But you can save them! What? Yeah, if you jump in you can maybe save them. I can save people by jumping in a woodchipper? Yes… I think I’m just going to leave man… So look, if >50% of people jump in everyone survives but if less than that, you get blended. Dude, WTF??? WHY ARENT YOU JUMPING IN THE WOODCHIPPER???

@MMBTycalibre @R_i_c_h_B That's kinda the point of every thought experiment. They're all contrived. We're out here pressing buttons to save or condemn humanity 😂

Just before you press your button of choice, you're informed that in almost every hypothetical trial run of this poll, whether online or real life, the population has chosen blue above red. You fact check this. It's true. Your loved ones have already voted. What do you press?

The real villain in red button/blue button is the person convincing everyone to push blue and when some alien race comes down and they actually have to pick, they chose red while having convinced a bunch of people they have a moral obligation to push blue.

@FamedCelebrity What if like the current results were 95% red 5% blue and the total remaining votes only gets blue to 49.9%? Do you convince as many people including yourself to push blue knowing blue is certain death?

@steady_drumbeat Its also a grwat example of how survey questions can shape results. “Everyone lives by not doing something clearly stupid (jumping in wood chipper) vs everyone lives if you assume everyone is not stupid.”

Great example of where abstract game theory breaks down. Normal people will push blue, normal people won’t jump into a wood chipper!
Ta-Nehisi Quotes tweet media
Ariel@redtachyon

Every human stands in front of a massive woodchipper. You can either jump into the woodchipper or not. The woodchipper has a design flaw - if more than 50% of humanity jumps in, it will break and everyone survives. If less than 50% do it, those people will die. What do you do?

@Jclearfield2 @MrBeast Do this, some sort of objective competition where no one knows the results and you stay in if you choose red but everyone stays in if 51% choose blue. You choose blue and it’s <50% you are eliminated regardless of where you rank.

Ok, I'm convinced. I want someone like @MrBeast to do this experiment in one of his competitions for like 5 million bucks. If you hit red you stay in, if you hit blue you only stay if half the people also pick blue. What do people do with real stakes on the line beyond virtue signaling for the internet?
Covfefe Anon@CovfefeAnon

This twitter classic "red button / blue button" [everyone who picks blue dies unless more than 50% do; everyone who picks red lives] question is cursed but we've learned a lot about people since it went around on the timeline the last time First to get this out of the way - there is zero actual reason to push blue - none - there is no "payoff to cooperation" being modeled since the payoff on offer - not dying - is the same for both choices. The only rational reason to pick blue is that you *hope* less than 50% of people pick blue so you can end your life and escape the person who is putting you in contrived hypotheticals for his own amusement With that out of the way - what we've learned in the 2 years since this hit the timeline the first time is that many, many people are simply next token predictors and when they see this example they say they will pick the "cooperative" choice (which isn't actually that!) We have also learned that when confronted with the stupidity of this position, they will simply costlessly double down and "argue" about it forever rather than admit error Really, the question is extremely revealing
