This was well thought through, and well delivered. Deserves more views, something wrong with the algorithm here?

[@MrNoufa10]

This should be bookmarked as one of my favorite speeches. Nailed it, right!

[@nickbirbilis9193]

Exceptional presentation. Thank you 🙏

[@thamalones]

Credit to the Maestro Nassim Taleb who not only coined the term Antifragility, but also taught us how to be Antifragile. Other than that, nice talk!

[@rookzero]

She did.

[@DharshiniM-bq4jh]

One of the best speech ever heard...

[@maryamrashidi2329]

Thanks, but the point supposedly was not to summarize the basic principles of Taleb's concept of antifragility and translate them into a motivational speech! I listened to find out "how to design antifragile SYSTEMS" by a researcher who's said to have had many years of experience in systems and design thinking as the title and the captions promised, but the speech did not go beyond "we can...we must...we could/should..." in the post-pandemic context!

[@rebeccafreeman9883]

So true...

[@rebeccafreeman9883]

And she meant blinders, not blinkers...but the message rings true...

[@akhiltej5904]

Nice 👍🏻

[@alablakelock78]

I find she's pontificating anti-fragility, with no real value addition to the discourse. Would have been valuable if she shared her own lived experience on anti-fragility

[@shaheenbeeharry7449]

Skip to 6:20 if you already have a foundational understanding of the concept

[@DrEPIC-bm3vw]

8:37 It rather sounds like a candle covered by a lantern.

[@arshidali433]

She is charming and intelligent too wow amazing person

If the talk was a drama class then I could say I have enjoyed listening to her voice. However, the topic “How to design antifragile systems”, was “band-aided” with variety of popular stories/sayings, which left me imagining an early brainstorming attempt. I could also imagine another senior “sale” person behind the scene who tasked her to “do” the talk. The word fragile is normally used as a warning for others to handle something with special care. Nothing more than that. The idea of “anti-fragile” is a fuzzy concept that does not really mean much unless the idea is to say that we should stop lying, manipulating, ignoring, pretending, mismanaging etc which cause certain areas (like health, food, education) to be less than they could be and produce “fragile” side-effects.

[@qba4455]

This one is not a good speaker...

[@TheMrazone]

So many words used, yet nothing really said.

[@garogaryvoskorian2619]

Nazim Taleb as per Robert Kiyosaki is a real teacher, yet she didn't mean any single word talking about antifragility in her speech! When someone needs to express a talk for a group, it's either the speech should come from deep down the feeling of a person or better to not just speak words!

[@frangelelink]

Seems we saw too different speeches man. I’m curious, could you please elaborate further on a specific example from her speech where it displays the sub-par quality you allude to?
