Inventiveness Aided by Artificial Intelligence and Patent Protection in Polish and European Law. A Comparative Perspective

Abstract

The article scrutinises the intricate interplay between artificial intelligence (AI) and patent jurisprudence. According to the authors, while inventions conventionally qualify for patent protection, those predominantly or entirely conceived by AI fall outside the purview of extant Polish and European legislative frameworks. The article delineates the parameters of AI and explicates the criteria for patentability, accentuating that inventions engendered by AI present a conundrum for the prevailing legal paradigms.
