My reaction to @cfcamerer.bsky.social as well ::blushing::
@annastansbury.bsky.social, your question is a core interest of mine and I have a couple of projects in the works on the topic. I would love to talk more if you’re interested.

And it is also crucial to note here that if the price list range or steps were different, the confused results would have been different. It just so happens that random answers => the four fold pattern.

How do goals & expectations affect what participants do?
Easy practice & simply setting a goal both improve performance.
Goal level itself matters less once expectations are set.
Participants care about the goal (see bunching), but only locally.

Do goals shape expectations? We find that expectations drive goal-setting.
Manipulating expectations changes goals, but tweaking goal difficulty doesn't significantly affect expectations.

What goals do people choose?
Participants typically set goals they expect to hit ~78% of the time. Few choose goals they think are less than 50% likely to be achieved.

(Not a Netanyahu fan) but getting the four soldiers home and then standing grounds against violations was smart and fruitful.

An alternative is that they think it will not collapse and they are trying to show strength of sorts and exert as much psychological torture on Israelis.

Of course it’s not good. But if you were Israel and Hamas started violating the agreement ever so slightly but blatantly, what would you do?

@aleximas.bsky.social referred me to Nightshade (nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/whatis.html). Basically, if we find a good-for-its-time way to hide the instructions from AI, such as Nightshade, then can proceed.
Nightshade: Protecting Copyright
Since their arrival, generative AI models and their trainers have demonstrated their ability to download any online content for model training. For content owners and creators, few tools can prevent their content from being fed into a generative AI model against their will. Opt-out lists have been disregarded by model trainers in the past, and can be easily ignored with zero consequences. They are unverifiable and unenforceable, and those who violate opt-out lists and do-not-scrape directives can not be identified with high confidence.
