Since the dawn of futuristic TV shows like "The Jetsons" and robot-centric movies such as "The Terminator" and "I, Robot," society has largely become enthralled by advanced technologies. Self-driving cars, robotic engineering, and more commonly, artificial intelligence, have become the most highlighted product that companies pitch to consumers and investors. "AI-powered," "driven by AI," and "employing AI technology" are all taglines attached to products in the tech sector, and increasingly so, over the past five years. In fact, according to a study by PitchBook, the number of venture capital deals in AI and machine learning in 2017 was 12 times the amount in 2008. The value of the 643 investment deals amounted to roughly $6 billion in 2017, compared to just $250 million in 2008.
