The United States Patent and Trademark Office has clarified that generative artificial intelligence systems are to be regarded as instruments comparable to other research tools, not as inventors. Director John Squires emphasized that AI may assist in idea generation but the human who conceives the invention remains the inventor. The updated guidance confirms existing legal precedent that only natural persons can be named as inventors, and it applies traditional joint‑inventorship rules when multiple people collaborate with AI assistance. The clarification aims to provide certainty for innovators using AI in developing new technologies, including pharmaceuticals. Leer más →

Astro Teller, chief of Alphabet’s X moonshot factory, explained the firm’s definition of a moonshot, its "fail fast" approach, and the culture that balances audacity with humility.

X launches more than 100 projects annually, with a 2% hit rate, but spends 44% of its budget on graduates that become "outrageously good" companies such as Waymo and Wing. Teller emphasized rapid testing, early termination of weak ideas, and an environment that encourages bold, creative thinking. Leer más →
