Abstract

In Emotional Perception, the EWHC held that an artificial neural network implementing a media recommendation system did not engage the ‘computer program’ exclusion under the Patents Act 1977. Following the ruling, the UK Intellectual Property Office suspended its existing rules on AI patents and issued fresh guidance on the issue.
