Ivy Clarice Estoesta, Roozbeh Gorgin , JDSupra; USPTO Seeks Public Comment on the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Patentability
"The relentless march of technological progress presents a unique challenge for the intellectual property (IP) landscape. Earlier this year, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued a Request for Comments (RFC) on inventorship guidance for AI-assisted inventions. See 89 FR 10043, available here (last visited June 10, 2024). Many responses to that inquiry, which closes on June 20, 2024, have encouraged the USPTO to investigate how AI impacts obviousness determinations. Not surprisingly, the USPTO recently issued a RFC seeking public input on the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on prior art, the knowledge of a person having ordinary skill in the art (PHOSITA), and determinations of patentability. See89 FR 34217, p. 34217, available here (last visited June 10, 2024). This client alert summarizes that RFC and delves into the complexities surrounding AI and patents, exploring the implications for patent applications, patent owners, patent practitioners, and the future of IP law."
