PARC Seminar — AI's Impact on IP Laws with Chris Mammen
PARC's FEATURED SPEAKER SERIES: CHRIS MAMMEN ON AI's IMPACT ON IP LAWS
PARC’s Featured Speakers series features expert speakers from within the PARC community as well as guest speakers from around the legal services ecosystem. Each month, we feature a hot topic from a leading expert in their field, as well as Q&A from PARC members and our guests.
In this seminar, PARC member Chris Mammen speaks on the following topic:
AI is becoming increasingly powerful and sophisticated, capable of performing complex tasks autonomously, with little or no human intervention. This raises important IP questions: can AI systems be “inventors” under patent law or “authors” under copyright law?
Agencies in the U.S., U.K. and E.U. have all answered these questions in the negative, seemingly closing the issue. However, in August 2021, rulings in South Africa and Australia found that AI systems can be inventors.
Join Dr. Christian Mammen, as he discusses how AI is poised to change IP laws around the world.
