Your argument boils down to Apple being the first one to use "App", which is an abbreviation for "Application".

But as fas as I know, that's exactly the same case for OpenAI GPT, they were first to use that abbreviation.

Timing may be the difference. Apple may have trademarked "app" before popularizing it. OpenAI may be trying to trademark GPT after it is already being generally used by non-OpenAI people.

ChatGPT is trademarked same as App store.

neither app nor gpt alone qualify
