The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) plays an important role in incentivizing and protecting innovation, including innovation enabled by artificial intelligence (AI), to ensure continued U.S. leadership in AI and other emerging technologies (ET).

On February 14, 2023, the USPTO published a Federal Register Notice requesting comments regarding AI and inventorship. The USPTO is now announcing a West Coast AI inventorship public listening session, at Stanford Law School.

The purpose of the listening session is to seek stakeholder input on the current state of AI technologies and inventorship issues that may result from their advancement, as set forth in the questions posed in the Federal Register Notice of February 14, 2023.
