Group chats in ChatGPT now available
OpenAI has introduced a collaborative feature that allows multiple people to chat together with ChatGPT in shared conversations.
Here's the breakdown:
Creating & Joining Groups
- Tap the people icon to start a group chat from any new or existing conversation
- Invite 1-20 people by sharing a link
- Set up a profile (name, username, photo) when joining your first group chat
- Anyone in the group can share the invite link to bring others in
How Conversations Flow
- ChatGPT has learned social behaviors to decide when to respond or stay quiet based on context
- You can mention "ChatGPT" directly when you want it to participate
- It can react with emojis and reference profile photos
- Responses use GPT-5.1 Auto, which selects the best model based on the prompt and each user's plan (Free, Go, Plus, or Pro)
Key Features
Collaborative Capabilities
- Plan trips, organize events, make group decisions
- Work together on projects (designing spaces, creating content)
- Draft outlines, research topics, or settle debates
- Share articles, notes, and questions while ChatGPT summarizes and organizes
Available Tools Search, image/file upload, image generation, and dictation all work in group chats
Privacy & Control
Separation from Personal Use
- Group chats are completely separate from your private conversations
- Your personal ChatGPT memory is NOT shared or used in groups
- ChatGPT doesn't create new memories from group conversations
User Controls
- Must accept invitations to join
- Anyone can leave at any time
- Members can name groups, add/remove people, mute notifications
- Set custom instructions per group chat
- Special protections for users under 18 (reduced sensitive content exposure)
