I'm not sure if the industry is similar enough that this will be a problem for OpenAI (I suspect the fact that people are using GPT to refer to generative pre-trained transformer's in general is more of an issue for this application).
GPT partition tables also come to mind.
- hgsgm 4y agoThere are many many overlapping trademarks on initialisms.
- hn_throwaway_99 4y agoGood find. As the other commenter noted, however, trademarks are limited to the narrow field to which they apply. So I'm assuming OpenAI will be successful in getting a trademark for GPT in the field of generative AI, but it will be limited to that scope.
- gcoakes 4y agoThank you for mentioning GPT partition tables. The whole time I was reading this thread I kept feeling like there was something I was forgetting. I even just nuked one of my linux tinkering laptops this weekend and reinstalled.
