Out of curiosity, I mediated a game of Prisoner's Dilemma between Gemini 
and ChatGPT.

The results? Without knowing whether the game would be iterated or not, 
both LLMs cooperated.

 

Stuart, did you play against either AI?  What if the AIs cooperate with each other but defect against humans?  That would be a bad omen.  On the other hand, a human might be compelled to defect against an AI, reasoning that prison is irrelevant to software, but highly relevant to humans.

The mind boggles.
