Artificial intelligence (AI) is not a new concept or a new terminology in the technological arena, especially in the automation and mechanization of different processes used in our daily business life or even in the field of defense and other governmental as well as private sectors. The core concept of AI dates back to 1940 when the conjunction of automated machines and organic functionalities were considered in the field of cybernetics. At that time, the growth of machines and other technologies based on mechanical automation was at the peak due to emerging competition and global wars, especially World War II, which was one of the most powerful dynamics of developing the advanced cybernetics technologies based on the merger of organic being and mechanical process automation. This era is considered as the starting point of the modern AI.
