[quote=Anonymous]I'm a current Trademark Examiner who has been here since the late 90's. What the former examiner is referring to is our form paragraphs. Yes, there are standard paragraphs that cite the current law. When we refuse a trademark, the grounds are the same for many refusals. There is no use reinventing the wheel. It also keeps us consistent across the examining corps. Having said that, it is false to say we don't draft our own letters or that we don't write our own explanations. We have plenty of autonomy. We were hired and trained to use our judgement. Trademark examination is subtle and I don't think that AI is up to the task yet. [/quote]
