For sure. I am assuming that there will be a software system that will apply to utility patents in the middle future.

You probably could recoup that.

Having said that, I wonder if quality is important, or whether it's more important that the result accurately mirrors the gov't agency results.

This creates a gov't transparency issue imo.

The USPTO's design patent search tool is also available to law firms and corporations through Clarivate (for a fee, presumably). I'm not sure how I feel about the gov't using AI that is paywalled for the private sector. But here we are. clarivate.com/intellectual...

Pew study: Users less likely to click on links when AI summary appears. Also more likely to end the session entirely. One in five searches produced an AI summary. Most cited sources: Wikipedia, YouTube and Reddit. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

However, I wonder if the doll functions as a mark? Compared with something like this. Honestly, I don't know.

Mark description: "The mark consists of a two-dimensional representation of a cream-colored rabbit...."

Agree- '534 file history's response to Walmart rejection: "Nowhere in the application does the applicant specify that this is a three-dimensional product design. The mark is ... but a simple two-dimensional mark as shown in the application. Proof of acquired distinctiveness is not required."

Here's my theory--the general attack on trans rights in set out in Project 2025. These are just two arms of the same octopus working together. If the FDA doesn't become involved, I'll be surprised.

Sounds like generally good life advice.

The Dangers of “Gender-Affirming Care” for Minors This workshop will focus on unfair or deceptive trade practices in “gender-affirming care” for minors.

FTC holds hearings to "help the FTC to understand whether consumers are being or have been exposed to false or unsupported claims about 'gender-affirming care'." Scare quotes in original. www.ftc.gov/news-events/...
