Edgy Tech MeThis podcast discusses a recent judgment in Australia that an AI can hold a patent. This judgment opens up a can of worms, as it raises a lot of questions about what constitutes an entity. The podcast panel discusses the ramifications of this judgment, noting that it will likely lead to a lot of challenges around what is and is not an entity.
The article discusses the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) on the legal system, specifically with regards to intellectual property (IP) and patents. It is argued that, as AI becomes more sophisticated, it will be able to own IP and patents in the same way that humans can. This could have a significant impact on the legal system, as AI would be able to challenge existing legislation and court rulings. The article ends with a discussion of the implications of this for the future of IP and the legal system.
