We are interested in understanding how socially desirable traits like sympathy, reciprocity, and fairness can survive in environments that include aggressive and exploitative agents. Social scientists have long theorized about ingrained motivational factors as explanations for departures from self-seeking behaviors by human subjects. Some of these factors, namely reciprocity, have also been studied extensively in the context of agent systems as tools for promoting cooperation and improving social welfare in stable societies. In this paper, we evaluate how other factors like sympathy and parity can be used by agents to seek out cooperation possibilities while avoiding exploitation traps in more dynamic societies. We evaluate the relative effectiveness of agents influenced by different social considerations when they can change who they interact with in their environment using both an experimental framework and a predictive analysis. Such rewiring of social networks not only allows possibly vulnerable agents to avoid exploitation but also allows them to form gainful coalitions to leverage mutually beneficial cooperation, thereby significantly increasing social welfare.

平等、同情和互惠对增加社会福利的影响

我们有兴趣了解同情、互惠和公平等社会需要的特质如何在包括攻击性和剥削性代理人的环境中生存下来。长期以来,社会科学家一直将根深蒂固的动机因素理论化为人类受试者偏离自我寻求行为的解释。其中一些因素,即互惠性,也已在代理系统的背景下被广泛研究,作为在稳定社会中促进合作和改善社会福利的工具。在本文中,我们评估了代理如何使用同情和平等等其他因素来寻找合作的可能性,同时避免在更具活力的社会中出现剥削陷阱。我们评估受不同社会因素影响的代理的相对有效性,当他们可以使用实验框架和预测分析来改变他们在环境中与谁互动时。这种社交网络的重新布线不仅可以让可能脆弱的代理人避免剥削,还可以让他们形成有收益的联盟以利用互利合作,从而显着增加社会福利。
