The ludic fallacy, proposed by Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book The Black Swan (2007), is "the misuse of games to model real-life situations".[1] Taleb explains the fallacy as "basing studies of chance on the narrow world of games and dice".[2] The adjective ludic originates from the Latin noun ludus, meaning "play, game, sport, pastime".[3]
