人工智能生成发明可专利性及其权利归属

The Patentability and Ownership of the Invention Generated by Artificial Intelligence

人工智能生成发明纳入专利法保护已成趋势,因专利法以保护人类发明中心主义为根本宗旨,现行的专利法面临挑战。其表现在:法律未赋予人工智能的法律主体地位、人工智能生成发明物未纳入专利法保护的客体范围、生成发明的专利权归属不明。要解决此类问题,应坚持激励创新、激励投资的目的,结合专利法的立法趋势,建议未来专利法应扩大专利保护范围,引用科斯定理经济学原理分析人工智能生成发明的专利权归属于人工智能使用者的合理性,使人工智能生成发明得到专利法的有效规制。

It has become a trend that AI generated inventions are included in the protection of patent law.Because the fundamental purpose of patent law is to protect human invention centralism,the current patent law is facing challenges.It shows that:the law does not give artificial intelligence the legal subject status,the artificial intelligence generated inventions are not included in the scope of the object protected by the patent law,and the ownership of the generated invention patent is unknown.It is urgent to solve such problems,adhere to the purpose of encouraging innovation and investment,and combine the legislative trend of patent law,suggest that patent law should expand the scope of patent protection in the future,and analyze the rationality that the patent right of AI generated invention belongs to the user of AI based on the principle of Coase Theorem economics.To promote the invention of artificial intelligence to be effectively regulated by patent law.
