With due respect to Taleb, the changing the name from "resiliency" to "antifragility" does not create anything new.
Resilience is not antifragility.
According to google dictionary, it is close to robust:
resilience
(noun)
1.
the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness.
"the often remarkable resilience of so many British institutions"
2.
the ability of a substance or object to spring back into shape; elasticity.
"nylon is excellent in wearability and resilience"
And Robust is not antifragility.
Antifragility is something that
gain from chaos and disorder. Robust or Resilient is something that is
resistant or can quickly recover from chaos and disorder. Those concepts are very different.
Like the example I said. It is like putting a sticker in your bag saying "Please mishandle"
This idea comes from his experience as an option trader.
I will make an example:
Antifragility x World Crisis - An option trader can benefit from chaos. He maybe shortening stocks in a crash and he will make 10000% in a crash. He gained from the disorder.
Resilient to World Crisis - Buying bonds or gold with liquidity when stock market crashes. He is resistant to the crash, but didn't benefit from it.
Or an example closer to our reality:
Shortening bitcoin (antifragile to bitcoin crash) x Buying Tether (resilient to bitcoin crash)
