Can AI be a co-inventor on your patent? The short answer is no. AI can contribute to an idea, but to be patentable, there must be a significant contribution from a real person. LZ Legal Services attorney Don Smith explains that if an invention is entirely generated by AI, it will not qualify for patent protection. The human inventor must play a meaningful role in the creation process. Connect with an attorney today at our link in bio to learn how to protect your next big idea.
