Software patents are intellectual property (IP) that gives the holder exclusive rights to an invention or innovation in software. The government grants software patents to the inventor or creator of a new and useful software invention, which grants them exclusive rights to prevent others from making, using, selling, or importing that invention for a set period of time, typically 20 years from the filing date of the patent application. In this solo episode, Dwight discusses everything related to software patents and IPs and the pros and cons of establishing one for your business. Tune in now to see if this is something you should consider.

From patents to privacy to export control, innovations in artificial intelligence present attorneys with significant career opportunities. David and Jenn from Morgan Lewis explain how AI impacts their work and advise on ways students can prepare for future work. More on David Sanker & Jenn Wang. SPEAKERS David Sanker, Wayne Stacy, Jenn Wang Wayne Stacy 00:00 Welcome, everyone to Berkeley Center for Law and Technology's Career Podcast. I'm Wayne Stacy, the Executive Director for BCLT. And today we have two attorneys from the the law firm of Morgan Lewis, David Sanger and Jenn Wang. And we wanted to talk with him a little bit today about what the the practice of law looks like around artificial intelligence. It is, especially artificial intelligence and patents, and what is a, what is a practitioner do for day to day? And what does it practice gonna look like over the next decade? So, David, I'll start with you. You know, tell us a little bit about your background and what your legal practice looks like. David Sanker 00:48 Oh, thank you. Yeah. So fortunately, I was able to go to Berkeley Law a few years ago. And while I was at Berkeley Law, I was a summer associate at Morgan Lewis. And I started my work, thinking that I was going to focus on patent litigation. And I did mostly patent litigation. But I also did quite a bit of patent prosecution. Sort of an ancillary basis. And then, so I saw a lot of familiarity with with the patent litigation side, as well as the patent prosecution side. And after about four years that I've been doing exclusively, patent prosecution work. Prior to law school, I actually did software development for 12 years. So I have a lot of background in software. And that has been very, very helpful. Most people don't have that much background before they go into patent law. So that's, that's, that's my, my background and how about Jenn, why don't you say a little bit about what you do. Jenn Wang 01:55 Yeah. So I work with David Sanger, together on patent prosecution. So we do a lot of software hardware, different kind of technology or patent applications and do prosecution. But my background comes from technical background comes from undergraduate in finance and a graduate degree in electrical engineering, then I also worked in our technology company for three and a half years. Then I come to law school, and I'm working in a law company together at the same time. So I'm in the part time in Santa Clara. It's not Berkeley, but it's close neighbor. Then after graduation, I start to practice full time on patent prosecution. It has been like six years, so kind of close to your law school students. So I may have a lot of experience in terms of early career development to share with you. So that's my background. Thank you. Wayne Stacy 03:00 So one of the things I heard when I was at the PTO you talk with with new companies, and they would inevitably say, well, we read on the internet, that software isn't patentable. So we didn't worry about software patents. And, you know, the first time I heard it, I thought it was an anomaly. Oh, here's a company that didn't didn't talk to anybody. But then we started looking across the country between all the regional directors, and it came up over and over again. And so we started looking, and you can find a lot of information on the web that says, you know, software's basically not patentable. And then if it's not patentable, that means there's no real career path in it. For people looking to do software patent work, what do you have to say to that?
Do you write "new and original" code that is "useful" and has a "non-obvious function"? If so, your code may qualify for a patent. A patent can help prevent other people from using or selling your software. That said, which engineer among us isn't write new and original code every day? Software patents are weird and fuzzy and open for way too much interpretation. And, in the software industry, they seem to give "patent trolls" a lot of unpleasant leverage.This week, the crew - which has absolutely no legal training whatsoever - talk about patents, copyrights, research & development tax credits, building software, job hopping, and best practices. And, if you don't care at all about software patents, level-up your view of the world with this quote from Adam:People don't burn-out from too much work, they burn-out from too much unfulfilling work.Notes & LinksSoftware Patent or Copyright: Everything You Need to KnowLegal Notes: What's the Deal with ReactJS's Licensing Scheme?How to Qualify for R&D Tax Credits: The Four-Part TestFollow the show!

Software patents have been dubious since their inception — not just in principle, but legally too. Past rulings have called their validity into serious question, and now an opinion from a prominent pro-patent judge has called for people to admit that they simply shouldn't exist. This week, we discuss what this opinion means for the (hopefully short) future of software patents.

Bradley and Karen welcome special co-presenter and guest, Aaron Williamson, to discuss the OpenBSD email regarding purported FBI backdoors. In the main segment, they discuss the amicus brief filed by SFLC (where Aaron and Karen work) in the Global-Tech Appliances v. SEB USA Supreme Court case. Show Notes: Segment 0 (00:37) Aaron brought up a message forwarded to the OpenBSD developers list by Theo de Raadt. This story has been covered widely online. (02:50) Aaron mentioned that Glyn Moody wrote a blog post about what issues about “Open Source” security this raises. (04:06) Bradley mentioned the gnuftp/Savannah site crack that occurred in 2003 and its security implications. Those seeking more information on this can read the slashdot coverage, Savannah forum posts, the CERT advisory and even the missing files still on the GNU FTP site. (05:21) Bradley again mentioned Thompson's hack which he loves to mention when security issues come up (06:26). Karen mentioned SFLC's medical devices paper, Killed by Code: Software Transparency in Implantable Medical Devices, which she loves to mention. (08:23) Bradley mentioned the Debian/Ubuntu OpenSSL bug that occurred in mid-2008, which was widely discussed online. (10:18) Bradley mentioned a case in 2000 where the FBI was able to open a mobster's PGP mail merely by getting his passphrase. (12:49) Bradley offers an even-money bet that there are no FBI-inserted bugs in OpenBSD. (13:46) Segment 1 (14:18) The canonical page on Wikipedia for what Karen and Bradley are on FaiF says they are presenters, rather than hosts. (15:06) Aaron and Karen's organization, the Software Freedom Law Center, announced that they filed an amicus brief in the Global-Tech Appliances v. SEB case. (16:30) Despite the beliefs of a Jeopardy! contestant last month, “Maria” is Sonia Sotomayor's middle name. Antonin Scalia's middle name is “Gregory” (17:20) Bradley again reviewed the issues of classical vs. church pronunciations. (19:20) Bradley asked Aaron if what was being sold in this case was equivalent to the Cornballer as introduced on the television show, Arrested Development. (20:30) Bradley mentioned that on FaiF 0x02, they discussed the issue of how higher courts consider issues of law more than the detailed facts of the case. (23:30) RMS's speech, The Danger of Software Patents, is available as a transcript and audio (ogg) (35:22) Aaron mentioned Newegg's brief, which is a reseller. (40:50) Aaron mentioned the SCOTUS blog summary which included links to other amici briefs.
