OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Group Chats Globally to All Subscribers – Analytics India Magazine
ChatGPT has announced the global launch of group chats for all users on Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans, according to OpenAI on November 20. This rollout follows a successful pilot programme conducted in select regions, such as Japan and New Zealand, just a week earlier.
“Early feedback from the pilot has been positive, so we’re expanding group chats to all logged-in users on ChatGPT Free, Go, Plus and Pro plans globally over the coming days. We will continue refining the experience as more people start using it,” the company said in a statement updated on Thursday.
The feature enables users to engage in joint conversations with each other and ChatGPT. OpenAI claims that this launch transforms ChatGPT from a personal assistant into a platform where friends, family, or colleagues can come together to plan, create, and make decisions collaboratively.
The company views group chats in ChatGPT as an opportunity for individuals to organise trips, co-author documents, resolve disputes, or collaboratively conduct research. At the same time, ChatGPT assists in searching, summarising, and evaluating options.
You can invite one to 20 people by sharing a link, which anyone in the group can also share. When you create your first group chat, you’ll need to set up a short profile with your name, username, and photo. Group chats are easily accessible in a designated section of the sidebar.
Responses are powered by GPT-5.1 Auto, which selects the best model based on the user’s plan. Features like search, image upload, image generation, and dictation are enabled. Rate limits apply only to ChatGPT’s responses and not to user messages in group chats. Responses count toward the limit for the user receiving them.
“Group chats are separate from your private conversations. Your personal ChatGPT memory is not used in group chats, and ChatGPT does not create new memories from these conversations. We’re exploring offering more granular controls in the future so you can choose if and how ChatGPT uses memory with group chats,” OpenAI said.
