Noun

Definition: A non-zero-sum sequential game designed to illustrate a paradox brought about by traditional rational-choice theory in which players are compelled to make an ultimately irrational decision based entirely on a sequence of apparently rational choices made throughout the game. It involves an auction for a dollar bill where the second-highest bidder loses the amount that they bid, making them the biggest loser in the auction.

We hope you enjoyed looking up some related words and definitions. We use various open machine learning and human sources to provide a more coherent reference that pure AI can provide. Although there are similar sites out there, they are filled with nonsense and gibberish due to their pure machine learning approach. Our dataset is in part derived from ConceptNet and WordNet with our own sprinkle of magic. We're always working on improving the data and adding more sources. Thanks for checking us out!
