ChatGPT is a terrible product name. What would you have named it?

Yet hundreds of millions of users still use it. I can mention 'ChatGPT' to anyone on the street and they instantly know what it is. Same with 'Siri' and 'Alexa'.

A great example of terrible product name(s) are Element, Mastodon and even Bluesky.

Can you clarify why it is a "terrible product name?"

Frankly I'm tired of these un-google-able cutesy names that aren't unique. If you want some examples look at the other suggestions in this thread (Jeeves, Mother, Intuition). ChatGPT is only exactly one thing, and you "chat" with it, that's good enough to me.

"Bard" is alright but harder to uniquely google, and Bing's ChatGPT implementation is the terrible since I cannot even figure out what the name is ("Bing AI?").

Geppetto. Or, if you need to, Chat Geppetto.

I'd probably have gone with GPTChat which is objectively the best name they could have gone with.

Ill never understand the missed opportunity to call this product Allied Mastercomputer

Name doesn’t matter if the product is good. Another one comes to mind is Craigslist

Google because it sounds like music to my ears. Or yahoo. Or airbee-n-bee.

I’d have called it “Mother”.

Or “Intuition”.

Terrible for marketing.

But perfectly suitable to such a dorky product.

Jeeves! Oh, taken. Then, Elliot!
