  • How Not to Be Replaced by AI as a Patent Attorney in 2026
    Jan 6 2026
    In 2026, there are only two types of patent attorneys: those being replaced by AI, and those becoming indispensable "Mountain Guides". Which one are you? Most of us were trained in the "Advisory Trap": acting as neutral facilitators who present options and let the client take the decision. In the age of LLMs, that is a career-ending move. In this episode, I break down the exact strategy I’m using to move into the "Consequence Space" and why your human accountability is the only moat that matters.

  • The AI Smoking Gun: Will a "Non-Inventive" Report Sink You in Litigation? w/ Robert Plotkin
    Nov 12 2025
    Imagine your AI-assisted prior art search concludes an invention is "non-inventive", but you disagree and get the patent? If that AI report is uncovered during litigation discovery years later, is your case destroyed? This exact smoking gun scenario came up in my recent AI tool seminar. To get a definitive answer, I asked Robert Plotkin, one of my go-to U.S. patent attorneys for AI patents. His answer explains why, although the technology is new, the underlying legal principles are remarkably familiar and how you can confidently navigate this exact situation.
