James Davies and Vishen Pillay at Adams & Adams discuss IP protection strategies and ownership considerations for AI


In a podcast sponsored by Adams & Adams, we focus on intellectual property protection strategies and ownership considerations for artificial intelligence.

James Davies and Vishen Pillay, partners at Adams & Adams in South Africa, joined Managing IP’s senior reporter Rani Mehta to discuss:

  • How have different African countries' patent offices, courts and legislators approached the issue of whether AI can be an inventor?

  • What kind of ownership uncertainties can AI create?
