In 2019, AIP filed patent applications in multiple jurisdictions, including the United States, United Kingdom, European Patent Office, Australia, Switzerland, and South Africa, naming the AI system [[DABUS]] (Device for the Autonomous Bootstrapping of Unified Sentience), created by Stephen Thaler, as the inventor.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Artificial Inventor Project |url=https://www.wipo.int/web/wipo-magazine/article-details/?assetRef=41111&title=the-artificial-inventor-project |access-date=2025-07-25 |website=www.wipo.int |language=en-US}}</ref>
