I wonder if this changes when they transition to using AIs to evaluate the patents

Though tbh I’ve always found patents to be rather silly

AI patent owners have generally better biz outcomes, according to data I compiled in 2018. 25% of AI patent owners were acquired, compared to 16% for all US tech co’s during the same period. AI patent owners had a failure rate of just 11%, compared to >50% for all tech co’s.
Patent owners also benefit from better access to VC, amounting to an additional $770k per patent, on average, compared to VC portfolio co’s that do not own patents.

As an entrepreneur and investor, I am always looking for opportunities to improve my odds. Patent ownership is associated with better outcomes at all stages.
