S1 E37 Legal updates on AI and PatentLegal updates on AI and Patents: Can AI be recognized as an inventor? Find out the latest developments from around the world. Small business owners need to be aware if there is a large shift in their market. A change in patent law, along with AI might cause a huge shift to the marketplace. Country Report: The United States does not currently grant patents to inventions generated solely by AI. The appeals court did not allow the patent because patents are limited to human inventors only, and the US Supreme Court refused to hear the case. South Africa has granted a patent to an AI-generated invention. The issued patent, however, still be challenged, so the situation might evolve. In the UK, the issue of AI as an inventor on a patent is pending. The Court of Appeal had three justices ruling on the matter, with two saying "no" and one saying "yes." Stay updated for further developments, we are waiting for the UK Supreme Court ruling. Germany has rejected the recognition of AI as an inventor due to technical issues. While AI can contribute to the creation process, a natural person must be named as the inventor. However, an appeal to the Supreme Court is underway, so there may be future changes. Israel has taken a stance against recognizing AI as an inventor on a patent. The European Patent Office (EPO) currently requires a natural person to be named as the inventor. However, efforts are being made to explore the possibility of AI-generated inventions in a second application. Australia originally rejected the patent, but the applicant won on appeal and the patent is proceeding through the process. More information is available at THE ARTIFICIAL INVENTOR PROJECT
