Instead, find ways to probe and find out what the candidate doesn't like to do, which will reveal important info. Or, as you've mentioned, ask directly about ways they're working to improve their knowledge, skills and capabilities. If they're not actively growing, are they a good bet anyway? I’d vote to eliminate this question from interviews entirely.
