Yes, you can patent an AI invention or a machine learning model. The requirements for patenting an AI invention are the same as other utility patents.
For example, AI can take an attorney-written claim and generate a suitable title or summary. Make sure the AI tool generates contextually relevant content, understanding the specific requirements of each section of a patent application to fit seamlessly.
While AI can aid in generating ideas and solutions, the inventive concept must originate in part from human ingenuity. Human inventors must make substantial contributions to the invention that go beyond merely using AI tools. Otherwise, the invention is not eligible for patent protection.
Technical Process: If a prompt is part of a broader technical process—such as a novel method for interacting with an AI system or a unique way of using the AI to achieve a particular technical result—then it may be eligible for patent protection.
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.
