It's Time to Amend the Patent Act for AI Inventors

> Imagine a not-too-distant future where artificial intelligence (AI) systems develop a new compound that could cure cancer, and no human can be fairly identified as the inventor. What happens next?

> Under current patent law, the answer is simple but troubling: if no human can be listed as the inventor, no one owns the patent.

Tell me why anyone, or anything, should "own" a patent for the cure for cancer.
