Comment on OpenAI's GPT Trademark Request Has Been Denied
simple@lemm.ee 9 months agoIt’s like calling a laptop “Laptop v3.5”. They decided to name their product on the literal technology they use which was just a bad idea from the start, and is still causing confusion to this day when open source models are also called GPT.

iPhone is like ChatGPT. But trying to trademark GPT would be like trademarking “Phone”

iPhone is a bit different. Rather than just being the object name, they incorporated said object name into their naming style. OpenAI were trying to trademark GPT - the literal name of the technology they were using.
