Overview The terms Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are among the hottest buzzwords in today’s digital world.

If history is any indication, all you need to unleash a memorable and highly debilitating cyberattack is some government hacking tools, an unpatched system, and some devious North Korean operatives.

By definition, money is anything commonly accepted by people for the exchange of goods and services, but we all know it’s a lot
