> For 99% of users, we gladly accept these more "invasive" anti-cheats because it means less cheating in the games we enjoy.

The modal user likely doesn’t even know anti-cheat exists, and if they did, wouldn’t care at all. They just want to play the game.

> Most of us were able to earn money to buy a pizza or some additional snack betting on teams, or trading keys.

Unless I'm missing something, this is zero sum -- so it follows that a bunch of people mostly lost money (perhaps also during their childhoods)

Sure theoretically. Outcomes are dramatically better if someone else is around

I once did a course with a paramedic on basic aid. We were discussing choking, which is a condition that really needs a 2nd party to intervene. Someone asked what to do if you live alone (with no close neighbours) - the answer was essentially ‘good luck’

Thanks, this is a fascinating note.

You’re right that really it’s collaborative production that’s the heart, and there’s no real benefit to LLMs.

It does feel like some classical explore/exploit algorithms could be interesting, but I imagine the challenge to any effort is really just getting enough high quality contributors

I always thought there was decent promise in gwerns (gpt-3 era) proposal of a meta-llm CYOA: https://gwern.net/cyoa

Wonder if anyone ever took a crack at this

Because the numbers are less than 1 sqrt pulls them towards 1 (the edge)
