IN THE NEWS: An article published on the IAM platform in May 2024 on the USPTO’s guidance on AI-assisted inventorship reflects the on-going debate on this subject as AI technology continues its rapid development. The USPTO has been working through feedback on the subject from patent stakeholders, which has highlighted the diversity of views.   The current guidance states that AI-assisted inventions are not inherently unpatentable but specifies that they can only be patented if a human has made a “significant contribution”. However, the feedback highlights concern about the current guidance and its compatibility with existing case law. It also reveals the divide between those who feel that the current guidance offers too narrow a path to patentability and may discourage the disclosure of AI-generated inventions, and others who worry that, with the rapid development of AI technology, more relaxed guidance may encourage an overwhelming flood of applications.   The USPTO believes current checks and balances will prevent such a flood. But meanwhile, by reopening the public comment period for the development of inventorship guidance surrounding inventions developed by artificial intelligence (AI) systems until 20 June 2024, it is encouraging further feedback as the AI discussion evolves; and is also considering adding more examples of AI inventorship to augment the current guidance. We at Trusted Technology Network (TTN) are following this, and the wider global debate on AI patenting, closely.   TTN has significant expertise in software (including AI) IP and patenting and is working with several large and small technology clients in this sector. TTN’s team of IP subject-matter experts and practitioners, many of them with extensive patent examiner experience, provides in-depth advice on IP strategy, protection and value creation.
