Welcome to a fascinating exploration of the hidden legal battles shaping tomorrow's technology. Predictive algorithms have become the crystal balls of modern business, forecasting everything from home prices to healthcare costs, but they're also becoming the center of high-stakes courtroom dramas worth hundreds of millions of dollars.Across the globe, from Texas courtrooms to China's Supreme People's Court, judges and juries are answering a profound question: who owns the right to predict the future? The House Canary v. Amrock case resulted in a staggering $600 million verdict over real estate valuation algorithms, while Alibaba secured a 30 million RMB judgment against a company that allegedly scraped its predictive marketing tools. Even industrial applications aren't immune, with companies like Shen Group successfully protecting predictive design software for machinery components.What makes these cases particularly compelling is how they're redefining intellectual property law. Courts are now recognizing that AI model weights, the mathematical parameters tuned during training, qualify as protectable trade secrets. Data pipelines, prediction engines, and algorithmic structures have all received similar protection. The real drama often unfolds when employees change companies, raising thorny questions about what constitutes general expertise versus proprietary knowledge that belongs to the former employer.Healthcare prediction presents especially valuable territory, with ongoing battles between companies like Qruis and Epic Systems, or Milliman and Gradient AI, demonstrating how patient data forecasting creates immensely valuable intellectual property. Whether it's forecasting home values on Zillow or optimizing Medicare billing, these predictive tools aren't just convenient features, they're corporate crown jewels worth protecting at almost any cost.Ready to dive deeper into the invisible rules governing innovation? Subscribe now and join us as we continue to decode the legal frameworks shaping our technological future. The algorithms may predict tomorrow, but who gets to own those predictions? That's what we're exploring on Intangiblia.Get the book!Send us a textSupport the show

Rishard Rameez is the Co‑Founder and CEO of Zown, an AI‑powered real estate platform that makes homeownership more accessible and affordable. Zown was born from a viral Reddit post where Rishard shared his frustration over paying over $70K in real estate commissions. The outpouring of support inspired him to flip the model: instead of paying big commissions, Zown gives buyers significant upfront cash to help with their down payment and closing costs, while offering sellers flat fees. This customer‑first model has driven rapid growth, with Zown processing over $300 million in transactions and becoming Canada's fastest‑growing real estate brokerage. The platform has recently launched in California and continues expanding across North America. Rishard sparked a movement by transforming personal pain into an industry‑changing solution.(02:17) - The Broken Home Buying Process(03:02) - It All Started with a Viral Reddit Post (05:39) - Early Pivot from Flat Fee Model(14:59) - Unbundling Real Estate Services(18:06) - Feature: Blueprint - The Future of Real Estate - Register for 2025: The Premier Event for Industry Executives, Real Estate & Construction Tech Startups and VC's, at The Venetian, Las Vegas on Sep. 16th-18th, 2025.(19:00) - Feature: Meow - Business banking, with interest: Unlock a high-yield business checking account that pays up to 3.52%.(20:31) - Zone's Growth Journey(28:47) - Customer Acquisition Strategy(30:36) - Recent Seed Round(32:42) - Why Own vs. Rent a Home(34:52) - Collaboration Superpower: Muhammad and Jesus Christ
