schestowitz[TR2]"I think the author of this blog has missed the point of the CIPA Journal's cover article. The author of the CIPA journal article was not advancing the use of machine learning language model assisted vector search to apply complex legal tests (e.g. the current test for inventive step), but rather the replacement of those complex legal tests with a machine learning language model assisted vector search. There would be no need to conJun 18 17:09
schestowitz[TR2]sider whether the Hey Hi (AI) can decide what is obvious and what is not under existing criteria, because the test for inventive step would be changed from assessing what is obvious to assessing what is sufficiently different.<br /><br />There will certainly be cases where the AI-powered model will deliver a different answer on inventive step than the existing judicially applied tests, but that is not a bar to the AI-powered model Jun 18 17:09
schestowitz[TR2]being used. Whether this is a good idea is for the legislator to decide, taking into account both the substantive considerations (e.g. is 'sufficiently different' as judged by machine learning language model assisted vector search an appropriate test for rewarding an inventor with a patent; and is it better or worse than a person deciding whether something is obvious or not) and administrative considerations (e.g. cost, certainty, Jun 18 17:09
schestowitz[TR2]access.)<br /><br />I think there is no good reason why the obviousness criterion in patents could not be replaced with a 'sufficient difference test as assessed by a machine learning language model assisted vector search', thought I can think of many reasons why it should not."Jun 18 17:09
