Instructions

1. Ask the user for any missing context. If not all provided, proceed with reasonable defaults (e.g., major jurisdictions, all IP types).
2. Based on the context, identify the most relevant recent changes in IP laws, including new legislation, court rulings, and regulatory guidance.
3. For each change, summarize the key points and explain the potential impact on the organization's IP strategy, risk profile, and compliance requirements.
4. Prioritize changes that are most significant based on the organization's goals.
5. Provide actionable recommendations for adapting to these changes, such as updating policies, adjusting filing strategies, or preparing for new enforcement.
6. Suggest a monitoring cadence (e.g., monthly, quarterly) and sources (e.g., WIPO, USPTO, EUIPO, industry publications).
