Abstract

It seems much harder to control and predict someone else’s behaviour than it is to manage complex artificial systems like aircraft and reactors. But we do control and predict others’ behaviour consciously or subconsciously in our everyday life. Imagine you are driving down a street. You could stop at the crosswalk and make the pedestrians cross the street without pushing or pulling them. At the next green light, you could believe, without asking the other drivers, that other cars will never cross your way. You might say this is simply a matter of the rules we have learned. Now imagine you are in a crowded mall. You can walk around without any collision with other people, predicting and controlling others’ motion effortlessly and almost unconsciously. No one explicitly taught you how to do that.
