| Description
| For years, computer software has been eligible for patent protection, but it faces unique rules and standards compared to other technical fields. The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has added new challenges, as AI technologies, while built on software, involve innovative concepts like machine learning and data-driven systems. This course explores how patents are granted for computer software and AI inventions, examining whether traditional software patent rules apply to AI or if new standards are needed. Students will gain a clear understanding of patent examination trends, learn the specific requirements for software and AI patents, and analyze the similarities and differences between them.
