Through policy advocacy work with Unified Edge, Unified Patents has submitted comments to the USPTO's request for comments regarding the impact of the proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) on prior art, the knowledge of a person having ordinary skill in the art, and determinations of patentability made in view of the foregoing.

Unified has suggested that the USPTO may need to be wary of unscrupulous actors creating AI data dumps, including using bulk patent applications at the USPTO itself to create patent thickets.
