OpenAI is introducing group chats in ChatGPT, allowing users to collaborate in shared conversations with the AI. This pilot feature is initially available to ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus, and Pro users in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, and Taiwan. Users can invite up to 20 participants to join discussions, making it useful for planning activities like choosing restaurants, organizing trips, or working on study projects. In these group chats, ChatGPT assists everyone simultaneously by comparing options, organizing information, and providing recommendations. Unlike private conversations, these group chats don’t share personal memory data, ensuring that each user's private interactions stay confidential. Setting up a group is straightforward; users can tap an icon to invite others via a link, and new participants can create a profile with a name, nickname, and photo to personalize their experience. The new model incorporates social skills, such as responding appropriately, using emojis, and referencing profile photos, enhancing interactivity. Users can also manage group settings, including participant roles and notification preferences. OpenAI views this feature as an early step toward a more collaborative ChatGPT experience and intends to refine it based on user feedback.
