This only works for copyright. Patents don’t protect parallel inventions. And trademarks cover anything that could confuse a potential customer, even unintentionally.
- anticensor 3y agoTrademarks are field specific, unlike copyrights and patents.
- sp332 3y agoRight. If your use of the trademarked name or logo is not infringing, you can just copy and paste it. No laundering necessary.
- thewataccount 3y agoYeah definitely doesn't cover trademarks as they are for something else like you said. To my understanding patents do allow for either "improvements" or anything that achieves the same result as long as it's not the same solution as the patent? They would certainly be a lot trickier then copywrite/IP but I think LLM's would still be able to generate possible solutions? One thing I'm thinking of for example is medication analogs - there's common substitutes you can make that achieve the same or better results that you can make. To my understanding redbull actually did this (without ai) to modafinil with this patent - https://patents.google.com/patent/US20210380545A1/en https://patents.google.com/patent/US20210380545A1/en EDIT: Modafinil might have expired but it looks like redbull filed their patent before the expiration.
- sp332 3y agoWhen arithmetic coding was patented, lots of projects avoided using it. There was no workaround that got the same results without infringing.
