据我国IT之家报道，英国最高法院在当地时间20日的判决中裁定，专利的发明人必须是自然人，而非人工智能。这一判决结果出炉后，一名美国计算机科学家为其人工智能系统创造的发明申请专利的请求被驳回。
英国最高法院的这一判决依据的是英国专利法的规定，该法明确规定，专利的发明人必须是自然人。因此，尽管这名美国计算机科学家的人工智能系统在技术创新上具有突破性，但其申请专利的请求仍未能得到法院的支持。
这一判决在全球范围内引发了关于人工智能发明人身份的讨论。一些人认为，这一判决结果限制了人工智能在创新领域的应用，可能导致一些具有重要价值的发明创新无法得到保护。但也有人指出，这一判决是为了维护专利制度的公平性和严谨性，避免人工智能滥用专利权。

According to IT Home, the UK Supreme Court ruled that the inventor of a patent must be a natural person, not an artificial intelligence. In the ruling announced on Tuesday, the court rejected the request of a US computer scientist who applied for a patent for an invention created by his AI system. The court’s decision was based on the UK Patent Act, which states that the inventor of a patent must be a natural person. Therefore, despite the breakthrough technological innovations demonstrated by the AI system, the applicant’s request for a patent was not supported by the court.
The ruling has sparked discussions worldwide about the identity of AI inventors. Some argue that the ruling limits the application of AI in the field of innovation, potentially leading to important invention innovations being unable to obtain protection. However, others point out that the ruling aims to maintain the fairness and rigor of the patent system, avoiding the abuse of patent rights by AI.
