In my humble opinion our public education systerm and our higher education institutions are not preparing their students for the non-linear economy you seeing. For example, conventional "school study" is a form of hypnotic conditioning. By forcing children to endlessly focus on pre-digested answers, schools condition them to seek approval from authority figures (teachers, examiners) rather than trusting their own observations.nTrue creativity, requires an unconditioned mind that is free to observe reality as it is. Because schools penalize mistakes and strictly reward adherence to a specific mold, they effectively paralyze a child’s natural creative impulse while replacing spontaneous curiosity with forced, rigid study schedules alienates children from their natural love of learning. It transforms education into a source of anxiety, stress, and mental exhaustion. Without reforms in education the next generations will not be equipped to succeed in the non-linear economy.

The point is that the so-called Black Swans are no longer rare or restricted to a few corners of the economy. The actual YouTube conversation mentions Taleb and the distinction.
