Deep dive into OpenAI’s growing patent portfolio. Let’s explore OpenAI’s patent filing strategy, the technical specifics of their patents, and what might be coming next. More in this article: https://bestpatent.eu/unlocking-openais-patent-secrets-a-deep-dive-into-ai-innovation/

Zwei Patentanwälte diskutieren über ein neues Samsung-Patent. Es geht um einen Roboter, der sich auf den Benutzer ausrichtet und dafür eine Kombination aus Geräusch-Ortung und Bildkennung nutzt.

We couldn't cover all the questions in our last session, so here's another Q&A on patents for artificial intelligence and machine learning.

This is a recorded LinkedIn Live. Don't miss the next one: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bastianbest/recent-activity/events/

I asked my LinkedIn network to ask me anything about patents for artificial intelligence and machine learning.

This is a recorded LinkedIn Live. Sorry for the bad audio of the participants asking questions. I'll work on that.

This is a recording of a presentation I was giving on 29 March 2023 on patents in the Metaverse at the 7th WIPO Conversation on Intellectual Property and the Metaverse.

The WIPO Conversations are a forum to facilitate discussion about the impact of so-called “frontier technologies” on IP, including (obviously) artificial intelligence. The topic of my presentation was “Patenting platforms, AI, and software”.

Here's a list of examples of patentable and non-patentable AI in Europe.

Technical drawings obviously make great sense in mechanical patents. But in many digital patents the figures have much less value. Here's why.

AI patents are literally everywhere. It’s funny that every time I look up AI-related patent filings for one of my clients you can bet that we see a quasi-exponential growth trajectory. Listen to the episode for examples.

Question to you: How is the AI patent growth rate in your industry? Please write your industry in the comments so we can have a look at the numbers.

“How to claim the AI before it self-adapted?”, especially when you don’t know how the AI adapted itself to the problem domain? This comment by Eric Stasik on yesterday’s content piece got me thinking. Here’s what I think about patenting blackbox AI.

I believe patent law needs more flowcharts, so here’s one to explain AI/ML patents in Europe. I know it doesn’t answer the question “which aspects of AI are technical then?”. Would you like to see another video for that?
