Summary/Abstract: The motivation behind issuing a patent is, in theory, a simplistic one: to protect the fruits of your creativity. However, in today’s reality based on technology and capitalism, the importance of issuing patents is also altered by the social conditions. As artificial intelligence is a main characher in today’s reality, we dared to imagine our lives in the absence of human inventors and even in the absence of patents. We started on the path of our research from the hypothesis that the patent has a dual importance, on one hand subjective given the inventor’s attachment to his creation and on the other hand objective, from an economic perspective. Therefore, we aim to observe how the perspective on patents evolved and the problems that applicants face in the digital era.
