Is Artificial Intelligence a Patentable Subject Matter?

VENUE :  Engineering DreamLab, Research Student Centre, G/F., Haking Wong Building, HKU
SPEAKER :  Mr. Gregory Turocy, Partner, AMIN, TUROCY & WATSON LLP 

ABSTRACT : 
As the field of artificial intelligence grows in importance and value, various entities are seeking to protect advances using the patent system.  However, algorithms, which provide the foundation for artificial intelligence, are themselves patent ineligible subject matter.  The presentation explores what is “patentable subject matter”, and specifically how to describe and thereby capture innovations in artificial intelligence for patentability purposes.
