美国专利商标局（PTO）近日拒绝了OpenAI将“GPT”注册为商标的申请。PTO在2月6日的决定中指出，GPT代表“生成式预训练转换器”，这是一个过于笼统的术语，可能会阻碍其他公司将其产品描述为GPT。尽管消费者可能不知道GPT的确切含义，但PTO认为，对于那些了解技术的人来说，GPT指的是一种通用类型的软件，而不仅仅是OpenAI的产品。这一决定意味着OpenAI无法独占GPT这一术语的使用权，其他公司仍然可以在描述其产品时使用GPT。

Keywords: OpenAI, GPT Trademark, Patent Office Denial

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has recently rejected OpenAI’s application to trademark the term “GPT.” The USPTO, in its decision on February 6, stated that GPT, which stands for “generative pre-trained transformer,” is too generic a term and could prevent other companies from describing their products as GPT. Despite consumers not knowing the exact meaning of GPT, the USPTO believes that those familiar with the technology understand GPT as a generic type of software, not exclusive to OpenAI products. This decision means that OpenAI cannot monopolize the use of the term GPT, and other companies can still use it to describe their products.
