We are joined by Justice P Singh, who is a judge of Delhi High Court, and she has written a book on pitted law. Ma, Many, Many Congratulations for writing Thank you so much. This is very different issue, common man As a layman, how can this patent law in your book will affect to a patent law will have a big effect on the common man because everything that we use on a daily basis is covered by patents. Whether it is phones, whether it is medicines, whether it is technology, computers, everything is covered by patents. We don't realise it, but it is all governed by patent law and therefore every common man is affected by these gadgets and by medicines and by mechanical inventions. And therefore, I feel that there is a big need to understand patent law. Ma'am, you are also a sitting judge. You have to do many judicial works. So how difficult it was for you to write a book volume so big volumes of many pages, thousands of pages. How you manage it was very difficult. I started when I was a lawyer in 2015. I signed the agreement. Since 2017 I wrote a few chapters, but after that I could not write for three or four years. It is only in the COVID-19 lockdowns that I was able to write. Ma'am, you have very, very interesting point. Artificial intelligence. If there is some innovation by artificial intelligence, does it get a patent or not Very interesting? Because there is no law in India, there is only one. There is no law in the whole world, actually, for whether artificial intelligence should get a patent because in patent law, why it started was because we wanted to give innovation of the human mind a prize or, you know, encouragement. But now, if the computer is inventing, should we give patents or not? If Computer writes a music, if Computer writes a book, should we give a patent or not? These are all copyright or not. These are very complex questions, and we don't realise it now. But as we move forward as India wants to aspire to become a developed economy, I think these questions will come up and some lawyers some day. If your court this book, what will happen to me? I have written it in the book itself that if you write, if you refer to it, I may or may not agree with it
