The US Patent and Trademark Office has imposed a ban on the use of generative artificial intelligence, citing significant security concerns related to bias and unpredictability.
Jamie Holcombe emphasizes the USPTO's commitment to innovation, stating they are in the process of adopting generative AI responsibly, balancing progress with caution.
Despite the ban on external AI tools, USPTO employees are encouraged to explore AI capabilities in a controlled environment, for enhancing agency operations.
In a move to modernize its systems, the USPTO has invested $75 million in updating its patent database with advanced AI search features.
