The article covers a decision issued by the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, concluding that patents involving machine learning applications for scheduling television broadcasts and live events are not eligible for patent protection. Kevin said, "The court was quick to point out that machine learning is a 'burgeoning and increasingly important field and my lead to patent-eligible improvements in technology,' strongly suggesting that the court is not ready to broadly exclude all AI patents from patent eligibility."
