An idea to use #chatgpt for good:

Translate patents from obfuscated legalese into a readable form, add keywords, summaries, and similar problems. Make it all public and searchable.

This will make it much easier to find patents, and reduce risk of submarine patents.

@kornel but how confident could we be that its totally correct if legalese isn't our domain 🫠

@caitp Nobody knows what a patent says until it ends up in the 9th district of Texas.

@kornel Thats totally fair, I just find it's pretty confidently wrong a lot in my own domain, and it -could-, if over-relied upon by people who didn't study the law, could result in some costly miscalculations
