14:57 schestowitz__[TR]; There is nothing intelligent in AI, but it is certainly purely artificial.
14:57 schestowitz__[TR]; Rather than to come up with nice legal theories, not to speak about sui-generis law for AI, it would be more intelligent for the legislator to push for full transparency, or at least explicability of AI systems.
14:57 schestowitz__[TR]; Without any knowledge of the correlation algorithm and as important the training data, nobody will be in the situation to assess whether the result of an AI system is acceptable or not!
14:57 schestowitz__[TR]; This is the real problem and any fancy theory whether an AI system can invent anything.

14:58 schestowitz__[TR]; It's all very well spouting Cogito ergo Sum, but perhaps it is better to take it in context. Immediately prior to that 3 word sound bite comes another, namely Dubio ergo Cogito (I doubt. Therefore I think.) Sure, we can debate all night whether a machine can "think". But i would prefer to follow a debate about whether a machine can 8or ever will) experience the agonies of doubt.
14:58 schestowitz__[TR]; Me, I much prefer the notion (borrowed from US law) that an "inventor" has to have "possession" of the claimed subject matter before the subject matter of the putative claim can be seen as a patentable invention. Who has "possession"? Not the machine but perhaps the human who assesses for patentability that which the machine delivers as its output?
14:58 schestowitz__[TR]; BTW: I really did enjoy (above) the spell-check correction of "burgeoning" to read "the bludgeoning legal literature". Perhaps the spell-check brain used by the good professors can see better than us humans, what chracteristics the legal literature exhibits?

15:00 schestowitz__[TR]; The new reference makes plain what has been evident for some time, namely that there is confusion and disharmony regarding the interpretations of the different subsections of Art 3. However, I am not sure whether asking the CJEU a question relating to one of the subsections of Art 3 is the best way to clear up all of the confusion.
15:00 schestowitz__[TR]; In cases such as Actavis I, Actavis II and Clonmel, the courts have essentially decided that the "product" is not what was stated on the SPC application. That is all very well, but what causes confusion is the fact that the courts have relied upon a specific subsection of Art 3 (whether Art 3(a) or Art 3(b)) to effectively re-write the definition of the "product". This then leaves room for doubt over whether the same definition of the "
15:00 schestowitz__[TR]; product" should be used for the purposes of assessing compliance with the other subsections of Art 3.
15:00 schestowitz__[TR]; What seems to me to be needed is a logical and consistent approach to determining the acceptable definition(s) of the "product". That is a question under Art 1(b).

15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; Concerned observer
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 14, 2021 AT 4:12 PM
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; Thorsten, looking at the CSCs comments upon CA 77/21, it seems that the New ways of working are all teleworking, including the possibility of mandatory teleworking.
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; It is not clear to me why CA 77/21 is mentioned in the Joint Declaration. However, I rather suspect that it has a lot to do with a likely reduction in size of the office space allocated to the Boards. I would also not be surprised if CA 77/21 has led the President of the Boards of Appeal to make assumptions regarding the proportion of appeal oral proceedings that will be held by VICO (with possible remote participation of members of
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; the Boards).
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; If my suspicions are correct, then the planned move might only be feasible if, contrary to all reasonable expectations (in the light of G 1/21), Article 15a RPBA remains in force in unamended form. This raises the prospect that the promise of a move back to (central) Munich could, in the wrong hands, effectively be used as an inducement for members of Boards of Appeal to uphold Article 15a RPBA in its current form.
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; Of course, I am not saying that there is any such skulduggery going on. However, such a possibility cannot be ruled out entirely unless and until the EPO publishes all of the relevant documents (namely, CA 77/21, the MoU between the two Presidents and, most importantly, the relative size of the office space that will be allocated to the Boards in the building Pschorr-Hfe 7). Given the vast number of important documents that the EPO does
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; not make publicly available, I will not hold my breath waiting for anything on this point.
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; Even more concerned observer
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 14, 2021 AT 5:19 PM
15:38 schestowitz__[TR]; The MoU between the two presidents is in BOAC/12/19 mentioned in the Annual report of the BoA. In that case, its referred documents should be somewhere available on the BoA website.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Otherwise, ask the press officers of the BoA:

15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Whilst BOAC/12/19 should be on the BoA website, it appears that it is not. I wonder if the press officers would be prepared to provide a copy of CA 77/21 too?

15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Taxpayers and consumers money will therefore have been wasted on an epic scale, likely numbering in the millions of euros. Yet nothing will happen to the careers of anyone involved in making this decision. Thats the unaccountability of international organizations for you.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; @Concerned observer is right to mention that there may be a link with Article 15a RPBA. Im inclined to believe that, in view of the reasoning set forth in G1/21, Article 15a RPBA is plainly ultra vires and therefore good as dead. But thats assuming that the EBA sitting in another composition will not find another dynamic interpretation of the EPC
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Concerned observer
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 14, 2021 AT 7:41 PM
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; I would say that is now crystal clear that the EPO has no intention whatsoever of bringing the RPBA into line with the EBAs ruling in G 1/21.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; In this respect, I suggest that you watch closely for interesting interpretations of G 1/21 (such as that in T 0245/18, as discussed in http://justpatentlaw.blogspot.com/2021/12/t-024518-art-15a-rpba-compatible-with.html).
15:39 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-justpatentlaw.blogspot.com | Just Patent Law Blog: T 0245/18 - Art. 15a RPBA compatible with the EPC
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; It will also be important to keep a close eye on EPO proposals to extend (and excuses for extending) the applicability of provisions that mandate the use of VICO. I have no doubt that there will be some interesting developments on this front in the next 6 months or so, most likely using the pandemic as cover for effectively overriding the EBAs ruling in G 1/21.

15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Will Mr. Battistelli be made responsible for the damage resulting from the longest lasting lease contract (15 years) in the history of the EPO and the cost for adapting the Haar building to the needs of the Boards?
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Another Attorney
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 16, 2021 AT 9:34 AM
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; I agree with Extraneous Attorney. There is also no mention of the Orwellian perception of independence (CA/43/16) that served as the basis for the exile of the Boards in the new press release. Instead, it almost sounds like having Examiners in home office freed up space for the Boards the was previously occupied.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Concerned observer
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 16, 2021 AT 11:53 AM
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; The reason given in 2016 for the move to Haar was an alleged desire to reinforce among the parties to appeal procedures the feeling that they are appearing before an independent body as opposed to EPO examining and opposition divisions.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; The move back to (central) Munich now confirms what any objective observer was always able to perceive, namely that the REAL motivation was to punish the Boards for having the temerity (in R 19/12) to point to flaws in the set-up of the EPO that gave rise to a justifiable fear of partiality in certain appeals.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; As has been reported on this blog (http://patentblog.kluweriplaw.com/2020/11/03/a-few-thoughts-on-trust-and-judicial-independence/), the flaw identified in R 19/12 is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to justifiable fears of partiality. It therefore speaks volumes that, in response to being alerted to serious problems with their governance structure, the EPO has either done nothing (eg in response to the articles cited in the above-
15:39 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-patentblog.kluweriplaw.com | A few thoughts on trust and judicial independence - Kluwer Patent Blog
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; mentioned blog post), or has punished the messenger (by moving the Boards to Haar).
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Rather than be diminished by the move to Haar, justifiable fears of partiality have actually increased since 2016. Whilst the farcical conclusion to G 3/19 might be the most obvious manifestation of this effect, there are worrying signs of a gradual decrease in the number of members of the Boards of Appeal that are both willing and able to resist the will of the President of the EPO. The acid test on this point is likely to be how G 1/21
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; is interpreted and implemented by various Boards of Appeal.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; My guess is that there will be more than one Board that will be prepared to effectively ignore the EBAs reasoning relating to the role of the parties consent. The EPO Presidents New normal agenda effectively demands this outcome. Indeed, for reasons that I have previously mentioned, the proposed move back to Munich could be interpreted as providing the Boards with an extra incentive to reach decisions that do not anger the
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; EPO President.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; Of course, by failing to address structural flaws that give rise to objectively justifiable fears of partiality, and by taking decisions that could be perceived to make the situation even worse, the EPO is taking a very big risk. That risk is that a national court might find that the members of the EPOs Boards of Appeal are not adequately independent. One possible consequence of this has been discussed on this blog (http://patentblog.
15:39 -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-Could not resolve host: patentblog; Unknown error ( status 0 @ http://patentblog )
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; kluweriplaw.com/2020/01/18/whats-the-worst-that-could-happen-constitutional-complaints-against-the-epo-in-germany/). However, it is important to remember that judicial independence is also essential for compatibility with other legal systems, such as TRIPS, EU laws and the European Convention on Human Rights. The potential consequences of an adverse ruling could therefore be devastating for the EPO.
15:39 schestowitz__[TR]; So why is the EPO prepared to take such incredible risks, instead of just adjusting the EPC to fix the structural flaws? Perhaps they know something that we do not, as might be suggested by the period of more than a decade that one of the constitutional complaints against the EPO has been pending at the BVerfG. Or are they just complacent that their privileges and immunities will shield them from any fall-out? With regard to the wasting of
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; EPO funds on an epic scale (by renting and adapting new office space whilst EPO-owned space lies empty), that certainly seems to have worked for the former President.

15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; I am truly shocked to discover that the management of the EPO might be adopting policies and procedures that are inconsistent with the EPC! If only there had been some kind of evidence from their prior behaviour that might have warned us that they were capable of such a thing.

As things currently stand, it seems that management can, without providing any legal justification for doing so, order an ED to change its decision in connection with a specific patent application. Unless this legal loophole is closed, then the possibilities for rampant abuse of this apparently unchecked power are mind-boggling.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; One of those
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 18, 2021 AT 10:52 PM
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; This possibility was always there, as changes in examining divisions have never been excluded.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; BTW, the current drive of timeliness includes many thoughts of exchanging divisions as often as necessary to bring the procedure to a quick conclusion.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; Guess which conclusion is fastest and has no waiting time in which the applicant could exert any control over how to react to known prior art?
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; Attentive Observer
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 17, 2021 AT 10:50 AM
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; It is farcical to see that the president of the EPO and the president of the BA sign a MoU!
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; One should not forget that the latter only has the powers delegated to him by the former.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; As long as the president of the BA cannot present directly its budget needs to the AC, the BA will never be independent.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; As long as the reappointment of BA members is dependent on a performance assessment, the BA are not independent.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; This is the more so since the criteria for re-appointment are not even public. One of the criteria is certainly linked to production/productivity, and probably, but not written, an excellent flexibility of the spine.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; What is infuriating is that BB will never have to pay for the damage he caused and the millions of spent in vain.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; It was pure revenge of him for the EBA not willing to rubber stamp its disregard of the separation of powers and of the problems raised in R 19/12.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; I take bets that with the actual president of the BA and some EBA members it would have ended differently.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; As far as the New way of working is concerned it is mandatory teleworking, for members of the BA as well.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; In this respect, OP by ViCo are an absolute necessity.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; I can agree with Concerned Observer that we will face sooner or later a dynamic interpretation of G 1/21.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; The only driver for the present tenant of the 10th floor is to save money at any rate.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; He started with salaries and pensions on the basis of a fake study from which he took the worse scenario possible. Even after one year the financial results shows that there was no need to cut salaries and pensions. But the special allocations for the top management and its buddies have drastically increased.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; By imposing teleworking the aim is clearly to sell office space. BB was already dissatisfied that when he introduced part-time home-working not many examiners were asking for it.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; The pandemic offered his successor the reason he could not invoke for forcing teleworking: saving office space in order to sell it. The EPO tried to sell BT-VIII, the one immediately next to Hackerbrcke, but the city of Munich blocked it.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; The new building in Rijswijk was conceived with a maximum of open office space, also for examiners.
15:40 schestowitz__[TR]; The budget has also been provisioned such as to pay for a transformation of the present buildings in open space.
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; What is the most disappointing is that the AC has completely given up its control function and has degraded itself in a rubber stamping machine for the wishes of the president.
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; It is difficult to accept that countries with barely any applications have the same weight in the AC as the big contributing countries. There is a weighted voting system in the AC, but it is barely used, for obvious reasons.
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; This is probably the biggest scandal!
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; Concerned observer
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 17, 2021 AT 12:52 PM
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; Attentive, if you want to understand the behaviour of the EPOs management, and of the AC delegates, then it seems to me that the only way to do this is to follow the money.
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; Why on earth would the EPO make financial predictions that are based upon demonstrably unrealistic assumptions and that tell a (false) story of impending financial doom? What advantage does the EPO gain from doing this? Well, from the perspective of EPO management, setting very low (financial) expectations is a sure-fire way of guaranteeing that you deliver a stellar performance relative to what has been predicted. Trebles and massive
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; bonuses (for the management) all round! Whilst the AC delegates may be alert to this obvious manipulation of the figures, they may be inclined to keep quiet because the prediction of impending doom provides the perfect excuse to reduce the EPOs operating overheads for which read cuts to the benefits of, and poorer working conditions for, for the bulk of the staff and to thereby, in the long run, increase the proportion of the
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; EPOs income that is available for redistribution to the member states.
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; Quite how the tail (the EPO President) manages to wag the dog (the AC) so efficiently when it comes to getting pretty much everything he wants is perhaps harder for outsiders to understand. However, it is beyond doubt that individual delegations to the AC are almost always VERY keen to avoid objecting to a proposal from the President unless they are certain that the majority of other delegations will take the same stand. Indeed, it seems
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; that abstaining from voting on a proposal is about as much rebelliousness that AC delegations dare to demonstrate, even where it is clear that they strongly disapprove of the proposal in question. Given that the AC delegations are supposed to be the ones in charge, why are they so timid? What do they have to lose by standing up for what they want, or what they believe is right? Whilst I do not know the answer to this question, I have no
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; doubt that the real reasons can be learned by following the money
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; Patent robot
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; DECEMBER 17, 2021 AT 2:59 PM
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; G 1/21 clarified that ViCo OP are compatible with the EPC, despite not being the gold standard (in-person OP).
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; However, the AC can now introduce a new Rule 115a EPC: Oral proceedings shall be held by videoconference (forever), cant it?
15:41 schestowitz__[TR]; I find the EPO branches in Berlin, Rijswijk (which is not The Hague) and Haar more incompatible with the EPC.

17:17 DaemonFC; Sorry, just woke up. I'm feeling more like myself each day but it's taking forever to get over this.
17:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz__[TR], I don't like any of the new features, including "self-drive".
17:21 DaemonFC; The driver is still liable in civil and criminal matters regarding what the software does, including if it causes an at-fault accident.
17:21 DaemonFC; But now, you also have to spend $80 a year subscribing to a remote starter that's already on the car, if you buy a Toyota, or else it will stop working.
17:22 DaemonFC; This is like Windows "Anytime Upgrade", where all of the features are there, but Microsoft disables them unless you buy a new activation code.
17:22 schestowitz-TR2; with plate readers everywhere you now get better privacy as a passenger in a taxi than as driver of 'yopur' car
17:23 DaemonFC; If you have the Toyota for 15 years, it costs $1200 to have the remote starter work and previously it cost $200 or so to have a good one put on the car that works forever.

17:30 Techrights-sec2; :)
17:30 DaemonFC; They're focusing on hardware only, which is an improvement.
17:31 DaemonFC; But without knowing how the software works or how to replace their operating system, you still don't control the device.
17:31 DaemonFC; They want to be in control of when the last software update goes out.
17:33 Techrights-sec2; Yes, apple, Microsoft, and the others are trying to saturate the news on that
17:33 Techrights-sec2; topic, diffuse and unfocus the work, and confuse the public and, especially,
17:33 Techrights-sec2; the politicians. This has to be slammed through as legislation or else
17:33 Techrights-sec2; Apple will continue on the path it has been going down since Steve Jobs got
17:33 Techrights-sec2; sick, and where most other vendors are deciding to follow. Nothing other than
17:33 Techrights-sec2; a legal smackdon will suffice, the PR efforts to the contrary are no more than

17:40 DaemonFC; Microsoft is trying to retcon "installing software on Windows" as sideloading if you don't get one of the five apps that's not fake from their store.
17:42 Techrights-sec2; A key aspect is that M$ cultists have trained the public and the politicians
17:42 Techrights-sec2; to be completely docile when "computers" are mentioned and to roll over when

17:53 DaemonFC; Obviously, for safety you should take it down and have it inspected and repaired as needed. Expect to replace all of the brake lines, belts, and rubber hoses.
17:53 DaemonFC; They dry rot.
17:53 DaemonFC; But once you get out ahead of that, the car might be perfectly usable for many years.
17:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR2, I hope to get at least a few more years out of the Impala, but I won't be replacing it with anything very new.
17:55 DaemonFC; I'll probably go looking for about a 2010 Crown Victoria or something that was fleet owned.
17:55 DaemonFC; They just don't break down nearly as often as newer cars do. They were pretty much designed in the 70s-90s and then tweaked along the way. Ford never invested anything in a total redesign after that.
17:56 DaemonFC; The mentality, right, was different then.
17:56 DaemonFC; Back then, people were smarter and they knew, hey, this is a major purchase and it should last a while.
17:57 DaemonFC; Now it's "If my brand new $50,000 Toyota can't ping a web server to verify I paid my $8 a month remote starter fee, they start disabling my shit!".

17:59 DaemonFC; *tack
17:59 DaemonFC; Remember Henry Ford? His philosophy was that mass production should make cars so cheap and so easy to repair that anyone could own one?
17:59 schestowitz-TR2; and for BS
18:00 DaemonFC; Henry Ford was obviously a shrewd Capitalist, and these modern car companies could not be more diametrically opposed to his viewpoint.
18:00 DaemonFC; They want to tack on surprise fees that you won't even consider, to a car that's got you bleeding out like a deer that's been hung on a rack.
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; thanks
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; I take these notes for later
18:01 schestowitz-TR2; when I put together a post
18:01 DaemonFC; They control the government safety agencies. They ask for all of these new "safety" features to be mandatory.
18:02 DaemonFC; That way their competitors can't produce an affordable car either.
18:02 DaemonFC; When you wreck it, it's totaled because it costs $1,000 for the body damage and $10,000 to realign some sensors.
18:02 DaemonFC; When those idiots ran into my Impala, you know what I did?
18:03 DaemonFC; I pulled off the bumper cover and put on an aftermarket one that was on ebay for $150.
18:03 DaemonFC; It's held on by standard bolts that you can just unscrew and screw back in.
18:04 DaemonFC; It took out my fog lamps, but the plastic was so yellowed anyway that I just unplugged them and tossed them in the dumpster.

18:17 DaemonFC; Even if the police show up and you have no defense, you can waste as much of their time as possible by asking useless questions.
18:17 DaemonFC; Once the prosecutor realizes that it's a filibuster and that you're taking time away from them that they could be using to get others to agree to fines, they'll break down and offer you something.
18:18 DaemonFC; You can't go in there and read the phone book, but you can start asking the officer and witnesses questions that are about the incident, but are not going anywhere.
