If an AI accepts a EULA and nobody is there to manifest assent, does it make a contract? Nope, but then again, consumer assent to clickwrap/browsewrap agreements is already mostly pretend. Anyway, this will be a real issue soon: AI tools that use mouse/GUI are on the way. #lawfedi #contractlaw #ipprofs #ailaw #contracts #lawkoans

ICYMI along with measuring how similar 2 trademarks are perceived by consumers' brains, this also revealed aspects of trademark perception, such as visual processing, memory retrieval, "affective evaluation" and more. #trademarks #iplaw #ipprofs #intellectualproperty

MetaX v. Meta - this makes nice teaching material for #trademarks concepts like priority, abandonment, and the less common strategy of acquiring a company for a filing date(?!) #IPlaw #ipprofs #lawfedi https://www.entrepreneur.com/business-news/metax-wants-its-name-back-and-its-suing-facebook-to-get-it/443093 Entrepreneur

Good student question: If “popsicle” isn’t the correct name for a “Popsicle® ice pop,” then what are these things called? 🤯 #trademarks #ipprofs https://www.popsicle.ca/en/sicle-trademark-family
The USPTO has granted hundreds of TM regs that include "Patented.” Even if it’s true at registration, it will eventually be false. Maybe time-bomb TMs like this should be barred? (Or maybe it’s just not a big deal…) @design_law #trademarks #patents #lawfedi #ipprofs

Have you been a law prof for 8-15 years? Do you like talking about IP scholarship in small, friendly workshop settings?
If so, please consider joining us in May for our next M3* IP Scholars Workshop!
This year, we'll be running two parallel tracks: Onsite (at Miami) or online.
Full drafts and early-stage projects welcome.
------
* M3 stands for Mid-career or “Mezzanine” scholars, Middle of the academic year, & Mid-point drafts (though that last point is flexible).

Okay, so trying to write a Follow Friday post about IP #LawProfs made me realize: There are a lot of us here!
What hashtags could/should we use to keep in touch?
