The Prisoner's Dilemma illustrates the tension between cooperation and self-interest through a game involving two players. Each must choose between cooperating or defecting, with potential payoffs structured to create temptation. Player 2's choices can lead to varied outcomes, resulting in a fear of being exploited if they cooperate while the other defects. This payoff structure inherently makes cooperation seem risky, as the immediate rewards for defection are often higher. The dilemma highlights the challenges of achieving cooperation in competitive settings.
