What’s the killer 2-syllable word (google, Kleenex)?? ChatGPT is a mouthful. Even copilot rolls off the tongue easier though doesn’t have the mindshare obvious

ChatGPT is a mouthful. Even copilot rolls off the tongue easier though doesn’t have the mindshare obviously.
Generic gpt would be better but you end up saying gpt-style tool, which is worse.
- sorenjan 2y agoI think it shows really well how OpenAI was caught off guard when Chat GPT got popular and proved to be unexpectedly useful for a lot of people. They just gave it a technical name for what it was, a Generative Pre-trained Transformer model that was fine tuned for chat style interaction. If they had any plans on making a product close to what it is today they would have given it a catchier name. And now they're kind of stuck with it.
- jazzyjackson 2y agoI agree but otoh it distinguishes itself as a new product class better than if they had gave it a name like Siri, Alexa, Gemini, Jeeves
- Fuzzwah 2y agoYou're not saying 'gippity' yet?
- dgfitz 2y agoI feel like you should trademark that.
- WorldPeas 2y agothe less savvy around me simply call it "chat" and it's understood by context
- jazzyjackson 2y ago"I asked the robot"
- AlwaysRock 2y agoWell they cant come up with version names that stand out in any way so I dont expect them to give their core product a better name anytime soon. I wish they would spend a little time this, but i guess they are too busy building?
