Game Theory and it’s Impact on Iran
I seem to be addicted to ted.com talks these last few days and happened to find a very interesting talk about Game Theory that was given earlier this year by Bruce Bueno de Mesquita. The talk was entitled “Three predictions on the future of Iran, and the math to back it up” and below is the video from ted.com.
I find it amazing that such a limited number of knowledge points can allow us to make a prediction. I am also reading a few interesting books right now about Game Theory and think that it will be just a useful in analysis as NLP has proven to be when working with people and managing expectation.
Interestingly, akin to “Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego” I spotted a familiar face in the audience at the end of the talk.
