I'm indifferent to the content, but I fucking hate that they took the name Game Theory. I can't talk about this genuinely fascinating topic just about anywhere without kids screaming about the channel.
Game theory is a better name for the YouTube channel than the academic field.
No? It's a field of math, which are typically called theories, that studies games.
It doesn't study games, it studies competitive systems. Mathematicians chose to call competitive systems games and that was a mistake.
It studies cooperative systems too. The most specific term that covers everything in it really is Game.
Sounds like somebody doesn't enjoy competition.
Lol, they just lost at game theory.
And what's a concise word to describe a system in which participants make decisions within some ruleset where the interaction between each participant's decisions and the ruleset leads to determining whether each participant wins or loses?
