Demonstrating integration into practical application is usually the most effective in overcoming Section 101 rejections. For instance, Example 47 from the USPTO's July 2024 guidance describes an AI model for network intrusion detection.
This Guidance is divided into the following topics: Explain how examiner failed to properly apply step two of the test. Identify elements where inventive concept can be found. Argue that claim elements are not well-understood, routine, and conventional. Argue additional claim elements improve computers or technology.
§ 101 rejection relates to the subject matter eligibility of the claims. Not everything is necessarily patentable. For example, Laws of nature, natural phenomena, products of nature, or abstract ideas are not considered eligible subject matter for patents.
Utility patents must meet three statutory requirements under 35 U.S.C. § 101 to be considered patentable subject matter: The Invention Must Be New. The Invention Must Be Non-Obvious. The Invention Must Be Useful.
Claims directed to or encompassing a human organism are ineligible (and always have been). If a claim, under the broadest reasonable interpretation, covers an invention that does not fall within the four statutory categories, a rejection under 35 U.S.C. §101 must be made.
Patent applications: the three criteria Novelty. This means that your invention must not have been made public – not even by yourself – before the date of the application. Inventive step. This means that your product or process must be an inventive solution. Industrial applicability.

To get the granted Patent, which is essential for the enforceability, every country has its criteria to judge the invention. Usually, Novelty, Inventive Step/Non-Obviousness and Industrial Applicability are the common criteria for judging an invention.
