To obtain patent protection, you will be required to publicly disclose how to make and use your AI model, which may be undesirable if your AI model is otherwise not publicly identifiable.
Generate content when and where needed: Use AI tools that offer prompt assistance features to generate specific sections of a patent application on demand. For example, AI can take an attorney-written claim and generate a suitable title or summary.
Conclusion. Prompts used for AI software can potentially have IPR protection, but the type of protection will vary: Patent law is unlikely to grant protection unless the prompt is part of a broader technical invention. Copyright law may protect creative prompts but not generic ones.
