Ahead of the AI game: IP perspectives on adoption, barriers & Human-AI balance
Wednesday, 17 December, 2025
Did you know 92% of IP professionals plan to try AI, yet 79% cite accuracy as a top barrier? Generative AI is reshaping the IP world, but are today’s tools truly delivering? In this new episode of the Globally Speaking podcast, we dive into the findings of RWS’s “Ahead of the Game” survey, unpacking how IP professionals are using AI today, where it falls short, and what needs to change. RWS CEO of Protect, James Lacey, sits down with RWS Protect Head of Innovation, Anthony Brennand, to explore how the IP industry, which has been externally characterised as conservative, is rapidly adopting AI while remaining risk averse. They discuss IP team expectations, the essential role of human expertise, and some key data-backed insights: * 92% of respondents intend to try AI solutions, with 55% already testing multiple tools * IP teams anticipate 20–30% of workflows fully automated by AI, 40–60% enhanced, and 20–30% remaining human-led * Top barriers: accuracy/reliability (79%) and security/data protection (62%) * High satisfaction with IP translation tools; low marks for patent drafting solutions Get your free copy of the “Ahead of the Game” IP survey report: https://www.rws.com/intellectual-property-solutions/resources/why-its-time-for-ip-to-think-bigger-with-ai/
