Yes, and that is the root of the problem.
A patent must have an inventor. The inventor must prove that they have conception and mental dominion over the invention. A corporation cannot conceive of an invention because is has no collective consciousness to perform that mental act. (Corporations can own a patent, hence the reason employees working in research for a corporation agree to assign patent ownership to the corporation they work for). The inventor/programmer of the AI cannot assert mental conception over the invention because the AI process found it as part of it's algorithmic search. The AI must be declared to be a conscious, sentient entity with individual rights in order for it to be listed as the patent inventor. So far there has been no legal declaration of AI rights and so there is no way to patent what is discovered by the AI.
Sagacity legal has a blog that provides more information about determining what makes a proper inventor. (also on what problems AI as inventor face)
