What Are Black Swan Events? | Nassim Taleb
🔍 In This Episode
We dive into the world of black swan events, unpredictable occurrences that significantly impact society. Inspired by Nassim Nicholas Taleb's seminal book called the "The Black Swan", we explore the theory.
What is a black swan event? How does Taleb explore the concept of Black Swan? What biases come into effect with a black swan event? How does it change the way we think?
In this episode we will look to answer these questions. Learn about the "1001 day and Turkey" analogy, illustrating human overconfidence and the failure to foresee consequences. Join us as we unpack the butterfly effect and the profound implications of black swan events on our world.
