What if AI could provide accurate legal advice? What if it could guide you through complex patent issues, even if you have no prior experience in the field? The University of Luxembourg is making that possibility a reality. As part of the FNR Core Programme and in collaboration with the Polish Funding Agency and AGH University in Krakow, the research team at the Department of Computer Science is launching its first AI-powered legal assistant, specifically tailored to patent law.
The release of this AI-driven legal bot marks a significant advancement in the application of artificial intelligence in legal practice. While existing AI tools such as large language models (LLMS) or specialised platforms provide valuable decision-making support, they often lack of guaranteed accuracy in legal matters. The new AI assistant developed by the University of Luxembourg aims to close that gap, delivering highly accurate legal insights tailored specifically to the complexities of patent law.
“This is a revolutionary advancement in the use of AI for legal purposes. Our goal is to provide users with guidance they can trust while navigating patent law, with accuracy as our top priority,” said Tomer Libal, Research scientist at the University of Luxembourg.
The AI assistant has been designed to help non-experts. Inventors can rely on its accuracy and simplicity to understand complex legal rules and issues without needing advanced knowledge in this field. By making legal advice more accessible, affordable, and accurate, this bot empowers users to make more informed decisions. While it won’t replace the role of lawyers—especially when it comes to drafting a patent application—the tool democratises legal knowledge. This helps level the playing field for entrepreneurs and innovators, especially in fast-moving fields like technology and intellectual property.
“With this AI tool, legal complexities no longer need to be a barrier to innovation, making patent law more accessible and manageable for all,” adds Adam Kaczmarczyk, Software Developer at the University of Luxembourg.
