Deep reinforcement learning can promote sustainable human behaviour in a common-pool resource problem [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsA canonical social dilemma arises when resources are allocated to people, who can either reciprocate with interest or keep the proceeds. The right resource allocation mechanisms can encourage levels of reciprocation that sustain the commons.
