请问HN：可以对提示进行专利申请吗？
我决定提出这个问题，是因为我参与了一场相当牵强的非正式讨论，讨论对象是来自学术界和工业界的同事，他们都不是律师，但对如何在日益以人工智能为中心的世界中创造新“事物”和知识产权有一些共同的担忧。
你可以将提示视为“过程”或“体现”或任何与知识产权相关的变体，但我很想知道大家对此的看法——我特别关心的是，如果你将软件以开源的形式发布，是否会有人挑剔你的提示，并声称这些提示是从他们的知识产权/软件中提取的？考虑到提示本质上是语言，这种主张的有效性有多大？一个提示需要多详细才能被视为描述某个过程的复杂知识产权？我们能否将其视为代码和概念的体现？
请讨论。祝节日快乐！

I decided to ask this question because of a rather contrived informal discussion I'm involved in with colleagues from both academia and industry, neither of which are lawyers but who share a few concerns about how we can go about creating new "things" and intellectual property in an increasingly AI-centric world.<p>You can take prompts as "processes", or "embodiments" or any variation on intellectual property, but I'd love to know what people think about this--my particular concern was that if you ship your software as Open Source, could someone nitpick over your prompts and claim they were taken from their IP/software? How valid would this be given that prompts are, essentially language? How detailed does a prompt need to be to be complex intellectual property that describes a process? Can we consider it as code and an embodiment of a concept?<p>Discuss. And Happy Holidays!
