​@@infinite7815 The last round is the one that involves rolling double sixes, regardless of how many rounds were played. Now, let's assume that the game lasted 5 rounds, though the number of rounds is irrelevant; this can be proven with any number of rounds. First, we're going to calculate how many total people played. Round 1 had 1 player. Round 2 had 10 players(1*10=10). Round 3 had 100 players(1*10*10=100). Round 4 had 1,000 players(1*10*10*10=1,000). And lastly, round 5 had 10,000 players(1*10*10*10*10=10,000). That brings our total to 11,111 players(10,000+1,000+100+10+1=11,111). Next, we're going to calculate the percentage of players that made up the final round. Percentage is the partial amount (the number of players in the final round), divided by the total amount(the total number of players), and then multiplied by 100. As we saw above, the number of players in the final round was 10,000. If we divide that by the total number of players(11,111) then we get a quotient of 0.900009. Multiplied by 100, we get a percentage of 90.0009%. This means that there is in fact a 90% chance that you were in the final group.

The only thing I'm debating here about Billy's perspective of the game is that the 90% probability is actually a conditional probability. That means it is the probability that you died *given* that you managed to play the game and was actually put in one of those rounds from Round 1 to Round n (where n is the last round where Double 6s were rolled). This eliminates all the posibilities that you were meant to be placed in a round higher than Round n, and thus not being able to play the game at all as the game had already ended. So in conclusion if you do choose to sign up to play this game, there is a very high chance (Practically 100% certainty) that you won't even get to play the game at all, as you will almost certainly be meant to be placed in a round from Round N to Round Infinity, as this game has infinite players

Yep, that is correct if the friend knows you played the game, and that's after the game has ended. But before the game starts, if you choose to sign up to play the game there is practically 100% chance you won't be one of those players in the game, as this game allows infinite players.

@hizamianuar2272

3 жыл бұрын

The 97.2% chance to survive is also conditioned on your playing the game. If it wasn't, you would have a 100% chance to survive. The core of the issue is that the friend assumes that the game always runs for exactly N rounds, and then you are randomly placed into the people of those rounds. In this case, you would have a 90% chance of being placed in the round where everybody dies. However, this is not an accurate reflection of the actual game - since you have a 97.2% chance of surviving, you only have a 2.8% chance of being placed into the round where everybody dies. This fault can be emphasized when you realize you can apply Bob's logic while the game is ongoing. In a given round you know that you have a 97.2% chance of surviving. However, you also know that by the end of the game, 90% of the people playing will be dead, which suggests only a 10% chance of surviving, which is clearly incorrect.

The true reason why the probability seems different is because you’re measuring two different things. The high likely hood of not dying from your perspective is the measure of how likely it is for your one role to go double 6’s, but the 90% chance of you being killed by the perspective of the friend is measuring how likely it is that you’re the one in the larger population of the players, and this probability difference is also largely arising from the lack of information the friend has, not knowing which group you were in when the game has ended.

Joshadow Yeah but overpopulation is a simple numbers problem. Say you have 12 billion people on a planet which can only sustain 9 billion. You obviously need to kill 3 billion. So why use a game which randomly chooses anywhere between a few thousand and hundreds of billions of victims.

been on a streak of 4 or so videos from this dude and man I do feel close to billy, he such a nice guy

5:20 for anyone that was like “how?” Here, it was because Billy looks at the rounds and people in Total and if he sees how many people died then that is the 90% of all the players. Then he concludes that your chance at death is 90%. You, in this game, are looking at one round and in that single round there was only a possability of dying 2,8% of the time. Billy doesnt have to know the rules or probability of You dying to know that the last round was 90% of all people. Even if the last round was enourmous.

@jones1618

Right. Or put another way, if the game will go N rounds and you have an equal chance at being in any given round, it can seem like your chances of dying are only 1/N. However, if your chance of being in a given round is proportional to the number of people in the room on that round, then it is increasingly likely that you'll be in a later group of 10M, 100M or 1B people. The odds are easier to understand if you think about your 10 best friends playing a blind dart game with multiple boards. If each board's diameter is 10x its next smaller cousin and your friends throw a dart blindly, they are much more likely to land on the 100 meter wide board than the 10cm wide board. Smaller is better because it means you're in an earlier round.

Yes but the game will end at some point, and the final group makes up ~90% of the people

"You might think that the game could be played for 18 rounds, before there was a 50/50 chance of rolling doubles sixes..." well, no, and there's also not a 50/50 chance of me rolling double sixes after not having rolled doubles sixes 25 times (although that's not what you said, it is implied by proposing the premise there might be a 50/50 chance of rolling double sixes after not having rolled double sixes 18 times), because past events don't influence the chance of future events. Wording is important, as it has the potential of misleading people into believing faulty assumptions. The probability of rolling double sixes on the 26th roll is 2.7% and it has been 2.7% each of the 25 times before. The 50% is the probability of having rolled a double six after (!) having rolled 25 times. The key here, is that it is not predictive, but merely descriptive. You could ask "What is the probability of me rolling a double six if I roll 25 times?" and the answer would be 50%. But if you ask "I have rolled 25 times and never rolled a double six. What is the probability of me rolling a double six on the 26th roll?", then the answer would be 2.7%. Disclaimer: I didn't check the probabilities. I just believed your math about those would be correct. It's just the interpretation that bugs me.

The first concept you touch on is called the "gambler's fallacy", because it is common for people to fallaciously think that, e.g. after flipping a coin and it landing on heads, it is more likely that the next flip will result in tails, and for gamblers to make bad decisions based on this false assumption. The concept that the video attempts to describe, and which you clarify, is described by the so-called "geometric probability distribution".

The increased odds come from the increased number of players, and your life is on the line with each person’s roll.

3:54 Kevin became German

A quick tip for finding any number quickly on a standard 6-sided die: Each pair of opposite sides adds up to 7, so if you're looking for the 4, you know it's directly opposite the 3.

There's no contradiction here, you're calculating your odds of survival going into the game, Billy is calculating your odds of dying coming out of the game. Those are two fundamentally different questions. Similar problem: let's say your odds of winning the lottery are about 1 in 15 million. Billy knows you play every week and hears that there has been a winner but your country only has 10 million inhabitants and let's say half of them play. So he calculates that the odds that YOU are the winner are 1 in 5 million.

You're correct that there's no contradiction here, but you're wrong that you, as the player of the game, have the correct perspective. Going into the game, you have a 90% chance of being placed into the final round. You never actually have a 98% chance of living. It's because they got infinity involved that this happens. Basically, going into the game you have to look at the results of the game, making Billy correct.

So after watching this video, I went to my room, took 2 dices and rolled 6&6 at the first attempt... After pretending to be dying for a while - I am now here writing this comment. Have a good day everybody ;)

But the surviving probability is wrong from the outside perspective. The outsider is not counting those enlisted to play but weren't able to play. This would only be real (calling the exact amount of people) if the dice were prerolled, and in that case, the individual point of view is wrong. So, or the outsider is calculating wrong the probability, or the insider.

Plot twist/ the first person immediately lands a double six and dies

monopoly has taught me to roll double 6s all the time so id be the reason of genocide

This reminds me of the "doomsday argument" in that it basically hinges on assuming reality's equivalent to an intentionally awkward & inconsistent description of things

It's not only perspective, it is also the fact that Billy knows the game is finished.

Its not as much a matter of inside vs. outside perspective but actually just whether we have the knowledge that the game has already concluded. If I asked Billie before going into the game, we would agree on the 35/36 survival probability. Conversely, if they rolled the dice first until double sixes, made a ticket for every person that would have participated, and then offered me random ticket (and its associated result), I would agree on the 90% death chance.

This is simply false. I and Billy describe different events. I say that P(a specific player survives) = 92%, while Billy says that P(a randomly chosen player is dead) = 90%

@Biosquid239

5 жыл бұрын

They are both talking about the probability that you are alive, to the main person they see a 97.2% chance as that's the chance of the dice roll being successful. Now what bill sees is that eventually the game has to end, it can't go on forever, and when it finally does end, ~90% of the total people who played the game would be dead as every next room is a factor of 10 higher than the previous. So he looks at that and says you have a 90% chance of death because it will inevitably fail and you have a 90% chance to be in that group.

Not quite, at least the way I see it. Billy is looking at a specific player too, his friend, but he has a different perspective on the same equation, meaning he does not have the information that you have, which is that you lived or did not. Bit of a Schrodinger's Cat scenario, but without the quantum theory. The cat knows 100% if it's alive or dead, but Schrodinger does not, which makes his *probability* different, but not the equation. Just the probability changes, reality is still the same in that there is a cat in a box with poison in it.

@Christopher I would think so, yes. If the population is infinite and the game eventually stops, it seems the chance of you getting to play at all is zero. I think that's why Kevin says "If your friend hears that you played this game.." at 3:59 meaning you definitely were one of the participants before it ended. I think it's more fair and clear to say "This game kills ~90% of all players"

I might be understanding incorrectly, but this feels like a false paradox. (I know all paradoxes are false, but this one especially.) You and your friend are starting from fundamentally different premises. You know that you'll be participating in a random round. Since everyone in a given round has a 97% chance of living, you know that you have a 97% chance of winning. Your friend, on the other hand, only knows that you were a random participant. That's really different from knowing that you were in a random round, since there are many more people in the last round than in every other round, and you're most likely to be a participant from the last round. If you only knew that you were a random participant in the overall game, you would come to the same conclusion as your friend. So I think the paradox is really just two completely separate problems, stated in a similar way. They're about the same situation, but it's definitely not surprising that you end up with different probabilities. The only confusing part seems to be the problem statement.

@randomnobody660

Easy fix: everybody potentially participating is drugged asleep. It is revealed to you afterwards that you participated. That way, neither you nor your friend know anything the other does not. Also not every paradox are "false". "This is a lie" literally can't be true nor false. Some paradox points to a flawed axiom.

Dices depend on odds. And odds don't have memory. So your odds will always be 1/36. No matter how many times you roll.
