Patlytics
AI is at the forefront of change in the IP industry, hear how to use it effectively from experts.
The conversation covered how AI is changing the economics of IP work: how junior attorneys can build the skills that matter as AI takes on more routine drafting and research, how client expectations and staffing are shifting for outside counsel, and how in-house teams are using AI for portfolio management, freedom-to-operate analysis, and filing strategy.
The takeaway was clear: AI is already part of how many IP attorneys work day to day, but experience, judgment, and credibility remain essential.
