USPTO AI Patent Policy Initiatives
Time: 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. ET
Location: Online
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) plays an important role in incentivizing and protecting innovation, including innovation enabled by artificial intelligence (AI), to ensure continued U.S. leadership in AI and other emerging technologies (ET). Recent advances in AI, including in generative AI, pose newfound questions for IP law, policy, and examination procedure. The USPTO is developing new policies to address these issues. For example, on February, 13, 2024, the USPTO announced the Inventorship Guidance for AI-Assisted Inventions. Additionally, the UPSTO has also issued guidance on the use of AI tools by applicants and practitioners before the USPTO. This session will discuss these issues and other patent policy initiatives currently under consideration at the USPTO.
