The USPTO has released updated patent eligibility guidance effective July 17, 2024, specifically focused on AI-related inventions. Only inventions with significant human contribution are deemed patentable, excluding those solely created by AI tools.
The guidance distinguishes between AI-assisted inventions, which are eligible for patents, and inventions solely created by AI tools, which are not considered patentable based on prior guidance from February 2024. Additional analyses and examples have been provided to address specific inquiries under 35 U.S.C. 101.
