In this research we have developed experimental designs of the ultimatum game with supervised agents. This agents unbiased and biased thinking depending on case. We used Reinforcement Learning Bucket Brigade to program artficial agentes. simulations behavior comparison answer following questions: Does artificial intelligence reach a perfect subgame equilibrium in experiment? How would Artificia...

It?s time to hash out the differences in technologies used to smoke marijuana (cannabis, pot, weed). The short answer to your question is that it?s uncertain if vaporizers definitively create a high with overall fewer health risks, as research on marijuana is limited due to its classification as a Schedule I drug [2].
