"Google" at least doesn't have an acronym for "Generative pre-trained transformer" baked into it.

And many people don't know what Google stands for. Just like they probably didn't care what AOL stands for, or MSN

Even you agreed that almost nobody knows what GPT stands for - which means it's as random as any other three letter acronyms.

So i argue that chatGPT is indeed a good name (as good as google was).

Car brands are like that, does the average person know or care what GT, RX, STI, WRX etc mean?

I think car names like that are awful too.

(Clearly the car marketing world and the general public disagree with me there.)
