OpenAI's attempt to trademark the acronym "GPT" has been turned down by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in a final ruling issued last week. The AI company has been attempting to stop other businesses from using the term since launching ChatGPT in November 2022. However, the USPTO rejected OpenAI's request, stating that the acronym was "merely descriptive" and only highlights a feature or characteristic of the company's product.
