So... iPhone?
iPhone is like ChatGPT. But trying to trademark GPT would be like trademarking "Phone"
iPhone is a bit different. Rather than just being the object name, they incorporated said object name into their naming style. OpenAI were trying to trademark GPT - the literal name of the technology they were using.
Like trying to trademark “CellPhone”!
