  • Stability

Answer

Antifragility is a term introduced by Nassim Nicholas Taleb to describe systems that are able to improve and grow from disorder, stress, volatility, and chaos. These systems are not fragile, like a glass that breaks when dropped, but they are also not resilient, like a rubber band that can be stretched and then returns to its original shape.
