Cutting-Edge AI, Old School Legal Tactics

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that artificial intelligence is the hottest tech story of the 2020s. Like many of you, I started playing around with OpenAI’s ChatGPT last year, and I was blown away. I put it to good use by having it write silly songs about Bill Ferrell, tell me spoilers for movies that I missed, and create ridiculous images of Kevin Hartley:

Of course, I also tested it out on some trademark work. It’s surprisingly good at some tasks like explaining the differences between trademarks in appearance, sound, and meaning.

Given the billions of dollars of investor money pouring into OpenAI, it will come as no surprise that brand protection is a top priority. This means filing good, old-fashioned trademark applications. In the case of OpenAI and its affiliated companies, it currently has 27 pending applications and registrations, including 11 for “GPT” trademarks:

OpenAI has also been very aggressive about enforcing its trademark rights against others. In the last few months alone, OpenAI has opposed trademark applications for CLOUDYGPT, MATSGPT, BLUGPT, CAT GPT, CHATGPTBBQ, GENEGPT, TELECONSULTANTGPT, GPTPRO.BIZ, UROGPT, LIFEGPT, SENSIBLEGPT, TRANSGPT, PETGPT, ROBOTEON WAREHOUSEGPT, RYTE GPT, CRIMEGPT, CIVICGPT, EYEGPT, OPHGPT, OPHTHGPT, and DATEGPT. Presumably, they are trying to build a strong defensive moat around the term “GPT”. Their efforts seem to be working, as many applicants aren’t willing to fight back. It’s a reminder that, even in the rapidly evolving world of AI, there’s still a role to play for old school trademark enforcement tactics.
