Given how easy it would be to turn in an AI generated patent claiming that you were the inventor I think this is some legal activism and the guy doesn't actually care about these patents.

I can't tell the goal, but is likely about clarifying the legal framework or even influence it by creating precedents in these clear scenarios.

The person filing the patent has a lot of prior work in trying to get AI stuff legally recognised: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/stephen-thaler-ai-copyright-...
