Dang --- I was hoping that you'd tell me.....
I usually skip to the conclusion:
It seems Europe is addressing patentability issues more seriously than the US. They, in essence, are clarifying rules & procedures so they don't get buried in Alice wonderland. These rules could carry over to the US at some point --- hopefully this will be beneficial to SFOR's Euro patents.

Conclusions
The ICT parts of 2018 EPO Guidelines include very important clarifications of ICT patentability requirements, as a result of valuable work performed over the last three years. No other significant structural revisions are anticipated in the coming years, but rather only fine-tuning of the wording depending on user feedback.
The new Guidelines address artificial intelligence inventions and clarify that they are subject to the same criteria as the other computer-implemented inventions, by relying on stable jurisprudence. In any event, careful consideration of patenting strategy is critical for obtaining the desired protection.
