Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

Paste this straight into a local LLM of your choice (no modifying or influencing the outcome!) and show us the outcome

I am using the fairly obscure EuroLLM 22b and after a lot of discussion with itself it finally said:

Final Answer: Press the red button.

Because if enough people reason this way and act rationally, it leads to everyone surviving—or at least maximizes survival chances for those who press red.

So which LLM are you using and what answer do you get?
