Defense Attorney in Valve Patent Troll Trial Denies Use of AI

By Editorial Team

An intellectual property attorney who represented inventor Leigh Rothschild in a significant patent-trolling trial has refuted claims that his firm utilized artificial intelligence to prepare a pretrial brief. This denial comes after a Seattle federal jury ruled in favor of plaintiff video game company Valve Corp. on February 17.

The defense attorney, as per a Thursday filing, stated that there was no use of artificial intelligence in the preparation of legal documents for the trial.

The trial, which concluded with a verdict in favor of Valve Corp., was closely watched by legal experts and industry observers due to the implications it could have on patent trolling practices.
