Can't we be mad at DeepMind for filing them? Even if in the end they are not granted?

Can't we be mad at DeepMind for filing them? Even if in the end they are not granted?
- fixermark 8y agoBecause of the way US patents work, it really is a "We should file these so somebody else doesn't claim-jump them and put us in the position of defensively proving prior art" system. As a deep-pocket company, Google can afford to file patents and has a track record of being responsible about them in the community. It makes about as much sense to be mad at DeepMind for not filing them.
