Can AI Invent? IP Law, Patents & the Future of Innovation | Matthew Vaele & Tolulope Awoyomi
Everything AI & LawShow Notes
In this powerful episode of the Everything AI and Law podcast, I sit down with Matthew Vaele, a European Patent Attorney with a background in computer science, to explore one of the most thought-provoking questions of our time: Can AI truly invent, or is it simply a prediction engine? Drawing from his deep expertise and his role at Patsnap, a global leader in AI-powered IP and R&D intelligence, Matthew unpacks how artificial intelligence is reshaping intellectual property, patent law, novelty assessments, and the entire innovation landscape. From real-world patent strategy to philosophical debates on inventorship, this conversation is packed with practical insights and bold perspectives. If you care about the future of creativity, technology, law, or innovation, this one’s for you.
