Abstract
This research analyses the effect of patent regime on ChatGPT and proposes possible explanations to avoid these concerns. Intellectual property rights in general and patents in particular are very importance in the innovation ecosystem. Since ChatGPT is being increasingly used in patent perspectives suggesting various solutions, naturally there should be mechanisms to cope with its implications. At a broader level, ChatGPT can accelerate preparation of patent application, prior art search, and patent examination slashing costs and time while minimizing the system mistakes. ChatGPT can assist patent attorneys work more professionally and make more precise diagnoses, thus improving their productivity. It, however, is also raising concerns in stakeholders regarding various legal issues. New legal tools are needed to understand the development, regulation, and implementation of ChatGPT in patent regime to harness the tremendous possibilities of transformation for the better. Legislators and technical experts should join hands to formulate policies that balance the innovation and protect the rights of inventors.
