2 of 5 - IP protection is a cornerstone of business law. It’s not just about safeguarding innovations but also ensuring a company’s value is protected during M&A. Poor IP due diligence can derail deals. Follow @ipblawg.bsky.social for the latest on IP in business law.

GenAI has many uses, and it is fair use to train on copyrighted material (just to be clear), but don't use it to be lazy and shirk your creative responsibilities.

Libraries. We need to set an example by refuting generative AI. It cannibalizes the work of others! We respect appropriate copyrights and we champion writers, without whom we’d have no books, and books ARE our brand. Come on now.

“This case is about dog toys and whiskey”

“two items seldom appearing in the same sentence.”
www.nytimes.com/2023/06/08/u...
A bottle of Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey sitting next to a Bad Spaniels chew toy on a wooden table. The two items have nearly identical fonts, graphic designs and shapes. “This case is about dog toys and whiskey,” Justice Elena Kagan wrote for a unanimous court, “two items seldom appearing in the same sentence.” The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that the First Amendment did not protect a chew toy for dogs resembling a bottle of Jack Daniel’s from a lawsuit claiming trademark infringement. The toy, the Bad Spaniels Silly Squeaker, has the shape and other distinctive features of a bottle of Jack Daniel’s but with, as an appeals court judge put it, “lighthearted, dog-related alterations.” The words “Old No. 7 Brand Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey” on the bottle are replaced on the toy by “the Old No. 2, on your Tennessee carpet.” Where Jack Daniel’s says its product is 40 percent alcohol by volume, Bad Spaniels’ is said to be “43 percent poo.” A tag attached to the toy says it is “not affiliated with Jack Daniel Distillery.” Justice Elena Kagan, writing for a unanimous court, seemed amused by the dispute. “This case is about dog toys and whiskey,” she wrote, “two items seldom appearing in the same sentence.” She added that the characteristics of the whiskey bottle were familiar to almost everyone. “A bottle of Jack Daniel’s — no, Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey — boasts a fair number of trademarks,” she wrote. “Recall what the bottle looks like (or better yet, retrieve a bottle from wherever you keep liquor; it’s probably there).” After reproducing a color photograph of the bottle, she continued: “‘Jack Daniel’s’ is a registered trademark, as is ‘Old No. 7.’ So too the arched Jack Daniel’s logo. And the stylized label with filigree (i.e., twirling white lines). Finally, what might be thought of as the platform for all those marks — the whiskey’s distinctive square bottle — is itself registered.” Trademark cases generally turn on whether the publi…

In 90 to 180 days we should be able to have most simple tasks on phone and computer done by our personal AIs.

Perplexity just announced the assistant w their mobile app.

It'll start simple.

It won't stay simple for long.
