Thanks for that. That is patently absurd.

You sent me down a rabbit hole. In trying to track it down for myself I read a couple of others that I thought might be it, and was stunned by how obtuse these patents are.

What sort of leverage does this stuff provide? You mentioned "charge rent". What does that look like?

Honestly, I don't even know where to begin. It's insane IBM owns the patent to continued fractions.

If you wrote a continued fraction class in Pytorch and called backwards (or even differentiated the power series) then you're infringing on their copyright.
