What is the Difference Between Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning? And Does it Matter?
Generally speaking, a good working understanding for artificial intelligence by itself is the creation of the appearance of human cognition. Meanwhile, machine learning and refers to the ability for systems to learn from input data, and to continuously improve through refinement and without additional input from the user. In the real world, however, it can be difficult to separate what…

A Software Patent Perspective: Best Practices for Drafting to Stand the Test of Time
To listen to the critics of software patents you would never know that software has been patented in the United States— ever. Notwithstanding, software patents have a very long history in the United States. Computer implemented processes, or software, has been patented in the United States since 1968. The first software patent was granted by the United States Patent and…

From Licensing to Litigation: Strategies for Protecting Software IP Assets
Software owners must carefully consider appropriate vehicles for protection of their intellectual property in order to remain competitive and profitable. In addition, to maximize return on innovation, software providers must craft airtight, effective license agreements with terms that will protect their IP and minimize risk. Patenting software, and perhaps in particular artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) related innovations,…

Securing the Internet of Things with Blockchain
With the global Internet of Things (IoT) market size is projected to reach USD 650.5 Billion by 2026—doubling in size from USD 300.3 billion in 2021—there is an ever increasing need to properly secure information and data to ensure privacy and reliability of data and transactions. Among the ways this is being handled currently is through the use of blockchain…

Immersive Technologies and The Future of Entertainment
Immersive technologies are fundamentally changing the way we live, work and?consume information and media. And Extended Reality (XR) is blurring the boundaries between the physical world and the digital space. Through the combination of Augmented Reality (AR), which superimposes a computer-generated image on a user’s view of the real world), Virtual Reality (VR), which generates a simulation of a three-dimensional images…
