The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has significantly transformed industries and sectors globally, including the realm of intellectual property (IP) law. With AI-driven innovations proliferating, traditional frameworks of patent law are being increasingly challenged, particularly in determining the patentability of AI-generated inventions. This dissertation critically examines the impact of AI on patent law, focusing on the emerging legal and practical issues that arise in the context of AI-driven inventions. The study explores the intersection of AI technology and patent law, assessing how current patent frameworks address—or fail to address—AI’s capacity for creating novel inventions. It delves into the criteria for patentability, including novelty, inventiveness, and utility, while analyzing how AI-generated inventions raise unique challenges in meeting these requirements. By investigating case studies, legal precedents, and international patent laws, this dissertation evaluates the global responses to the evolving role of AI in innovation. Ultimately, this work aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of how AI is reshaping patent law, offering critical insights for policymakers, legal professionals, and scholars in navigating the complex challenges at the intersection of innovation, technology, and intellectual property.
