SAN FRANCISCO, MAY 06, 2025 – Chenope further expanded its patent portfolio with US patent numbers 11,972,346, 12,229,676 and 12,293,289.

The latest three patents address a broad range of issues relating to effectively countering online influence operations, as well as the provision of novel metrics to objectively measure success.  While there has been a tremendous amount of recent hype on the dangers posed by LLM-powered AI chatbots and their presumed ability to exert broad influence on the public, the reality is that whether posts are made by AI Chatbots or humans – either to provide new content or counter already posted content – it is quite difficult to garner significant public attention amidst the noise of the Internet.  Actually changing viewpoints in a persistent way is far more difficult still, especially on topics that most of the public already have strong and long-held views on.

The patents disclose dozens of ways that AI Chatbots can become more effective in engaging members of the public to counter coordinated propaganda campaigns and other inauthentic content – all while being rigorously measured and continuously adjusted to improve performance.

Chenope has now been granted 6 patents by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on a variety of AI-related topics. Further patent applications are currently pending.
