Intellectual Property Office: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, for what purposes the Intellectual Property Office has used artificial intelligence in the last 12 months.
Answered by Feryal Clark
Artificial Intelligence is at the heart of the Government’s plan to kickstart economic growth and transform how we deliver public services.
The Intellectual Property Office has developed AI tools that improve its services and assist its customers. These include a new public facing search tool that performs key word searching assisting patent prior art searches as well as a tool that identifies similar existing trade marks to inform the customer prior to their application.
Tools have also been created to improve the IPOs operational function and reduce administrative tasks.
