Here is a report on recent news and commentary related to the Federal Circuit and its cases. Today’s report highlights:
- an article addressing how the Federal Circuit recently ruled that “[a]rtificially intelligent machines cannot be named inventors on patents”;
- a blog post similarly discussing that, “for the purposes of patent law, an inventor must be human”; and
- another article arguing that a Federal Circuit holding addressing patent law’s written description requirement, if allowed to stand, “threatens to remove the patent system’s incentives to innovation.”
