Scruit Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 (edited) In the film War Games a young hacker accidentally triggers a DOD computer to start strategizing nuclear war scenarios. It is not clear if this is a simulation or real.In the final scene the hacker teaches the computer the futility of nuclear war by having it play tic-tac-toe. The computer realizes that there is no way to win either game against an expert opponent and shuts down the war/simulation.

Scruit Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Doesn't that say a lot about us? We yell and scream about how child molestors shoudl all be skinned alive with a belt sander then rolled in salt... Then we laugh at "Pedobear" - a cartoon character respresening a child molestor.And when I say "We" I include me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jester3681 Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Yup - that's what I mean. There is is 0% chance that a random answer will be correct. But 0% is not an option. There is no valid answer.I had a cup of coffee this morning and though of this. 0% as an option (instead of 60%) would make the paradox even deeper:A) 25%B) 50%C) 0%D) 25%If you choose C) 0%, you are choosing a "correct" answer, and since "0%" only appears once, it would be a 25% chance, making both A and D correct again for a 50% chance making B correct... deeper into the abyss we go.

Scruit Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Get out of my brain!!!!(The only way out of the paradox is for one option (and only one option) to bethe a percentage that matches the number if options. 4 options is 25%. 5 options is 20% etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
