What Happens When AI is the Inventor?
Human-AI Collaboration in Innovation and Problem-Solving”

Hey everyone, and welcome back for another deep dive! Today, we’re diving into something truly mind-blowing: A I inventions that, at one point, experts—yes, actual experts—thought were completely impossible. We’ll be exploring some seriously cool breakthroughs.
Imagine a food container, like Tupperware, but designed using fractal geometry. Or how about a bizarre-looking antenna outperforming anything humans have ever designed? The crazy part? These aren’t futuristic concepts from Star Trek; they’re real and exist today. A I is reshaping the world around us faster than we could have imagined.
Rethinking Invention and Creativity
Miriam Muthoni
What’s so fascinating about these examples is how they challenge our understanding of invention and creativity. A I is no longer just a tool; it’s becoming an actual collaborator. This shift forces us to rethink what it means to invent and create.
Take the first example: an A I called Deus designed a revolutionary food container. Using fractal geometry—those intricate, self-repeating patterns found in nature, like snowflakes or coastlines—it created a design that improved storage efficiency by 15% and reduced material use by 10%. This wasn’t just efficient; it was groundbreaking.
But Deus’s innovation sparked controversy. Patent offices worldwide rejected the application because the law requires a human name as the inventor. This case pushed the boundaries of intellectual property law and challenged long-held assumptions about invention.
This raises an important question: If these advancements continue, will A I be able to independently invent solutions once it has identified a problem or need?
As a special bonus, we are offering one of Prof. Singer’s books “Journey from Ideas to Impact Using 97 Different AI Tools” for free! It is packed with valuable and interesting facts about how you can use the POWER of artificial intelligence to accelerate your journey to becoming a world-class problem solver, innovator, and inventor. Visit HERE to get your free copy so that you can remain relevant, valuable, and far ahead of your competition.
Be sure to visit “Tharaka Invention Academy” where you can learn about how anybody can acquire the mindset, skills, and knowledge needed by all problem solvers, innovators, and inventors. The post entitled “Global Innovators: 101 Careers Transformed by Invention Skills” contains links to many more similar stories about these people worldwide.
