OpenAI's Trademark Application for 'GPT' Denied
The US Patent and Trademark Office has denied OpenAI's application to trademark the term GPT, stating that it is too general to register and could prevent competitors from accurately describing their products. OpenAI argued that GPT is not a descriptive word, but the PTO emphasized that it refers to a general type of software used by those familiar with the technology. This is the second time OpenAI's trademark claim for GPT has been denied, and the company can appeal to the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board for another chance to secure the trademark.
