OpenClaw, formerly known as Clawdbot and Moltbot, is an open‑source AI assistant that integrates directly into messaging apps to automate tasks, remember conversations, and send proactive reminders. After a rapid rise in popularity, the project faced a trademark challenge from Anthropic, a wave of crypto‑related scams, and several security concerns tied to exposed deployments. Despite these setbacks, the developer has rebranded the tool as OpenClaw, addressed many of the vulnerabilities, and continues to attract interest from developers and early adopters who see it as a glimpse of what a truly personal AI assistant could become.

The injunction, issued in November 2025, remains in effect pending a hearing in December, and OpenAI disputes the claim, saying it does not own exclusive rights to the term. Read more →

Elon Musk’s Neuralink filed trademark applications for its brain‑computer interface products named Telepathy and Telekinesis.

Neuralink has responded to the USPTO’s concerns, but the agency will still need to assess the likelihood of consumer confusion. If Berry’s applications mature into registered marks, Neuralink could be forced to negotiate a purchase, a consent agreement, or face potential infringement action. Read more →
