Awesome, thanks for writing this. Scott Aaronson wrote a nice post on common knowledge awhile back based on a talk he gave at SPARC, but this post gets at more of the use cases I think are actually relevant. I also wrote a post about how drinking together is about creating common knowledge that we’re drunk.
Thanks!
I’ve drafted a few follow-up posts on the math of common knowledge and aumann’s agreement theorem; reading Scott’s post got me thinking about these a lot, I’ll add it to the further reading section at the bottom.
