Weakening America’s Patent System Will Allow China to Dominate Technology of the Future | RealClearPolicy
When you consider that not only patents on computer-implemented inventions, but U.S. patents across the board have been seriously weakened, American leadership in all emerging technologies suffers while China s position strengthens.
This report should serve as a wake-up call for us to strengthen our patent system so we can compete in the global race for innovation on AI and other technologies. We can take steps to strengthen our patents. Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle have joined together to introduce legislation like the STRONGER Patents Act to improve our patent system.
Legislation like that would go a long way to reversing our decline and helping to ensure U.S. leadership in the world in innovation. Our national, and economic, security depends on it.
