Yeah, a judge is not going to find "prior art" generated by an algorithm sufficient to invalidate a patent. As a political statement, this is fine (though hand-wavy), but silly as a practical solution. Edit: That said, we do need to fix the patent system. The problem, right now, is human: there needs to be political will, effected by people, to persuade Congress to change the laws. An algorithm does not do that. Although it's possible this thing is a joke, in which case, well played.
