uncertainty and risk
Uncertainty refers to the lack of knowledge or predictability about future events or outcomes, creating a sense of doubt or ambiguity. It represents a state of not being sure about what will happen. Risk, on the other hand, refers to the potential for loss, harm, or negative consequences resulting from uncertain events or decisions. It involves the assessment of probabilities and potential impacts, weighing the possibility of adverse outcomes against potential benefits.
