This work investigated artificial intelligence AIand the development of AI in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, including AI’s applications in biotechnology and the current status of AI in some international patent systems. We explored the importance of granting legal protection under patent laws for inventions derived from AI for GCC countries and address the questions: Can AI be an ‘‘inventor’’ under GCC patent laws and are there are any positive impacts to considering AI as an inventor? We concluded that the issue of recognizing AI as an inventor has become necessary, and updating GCC patent laws and policies is required to keep pace with challenges and technical developments.
