AI is nothing but the intelligence that a machine carries and it enables sustainable development and pushes the boundaries and new boundaries require new approaches to IP protection. AI is nothing but a mix of what a human brain thinks and sees and how well a computer system performs it. However, AI is all about inventions and innovations, a person who has a keen interest in inventions for him AI as a tool is a must.
