OpenAI loses trademark dispute at EU court
it's quite oniony that "It ruled that the combination of words was not an unusual linguistic combination in English."

Wait, I thought OpenAI is open as in OpenOffice. That's dishonest from the start.
It was honest at the start but Elon Musk lost the battle to ensure it's a non-profit open for all of humanity. The commercial greed of Sam Altman and co corrupted the company whilst kicking out Musk and keeping the name. Musk then went and started grok as a response
Musk DGAF about humanity. He was just but-hurt that he wasn’t a part of it. I’m pretty sure Musk is on the record of saying they should have done exactly what they did before he got ousted.
And Musk has done such wonderful things with that, right?
The attitude was something to the effect "if you can't beat them, join them"
So Grok is.now "open"?
Good. If they want that name protected, they should go back to being an open source nonprofit.
