Show notes

As we go through the section on AI and machine learning in the examination guidelines, I'll tell you why the EPO's current approach is too restrictive when it comes to patenting AI innovations. At the end of the episode, I'm sharing my best tips for how to draft AI patent applications so that they fulfill what’s in the guidelines.
