ChatGPT has become one of the most important tools for many users, especially for assignments and projects. Till now, each person had to interact with AI chatbots individually, even for the same project. Now, OpenAI has finally launched group chat for ChatGPT, allowing users to work together.

The feature is available to all users on the platform, including free customers. OpenAI says that only responses made by ChatGPT in chat will apply to the rate limit. Thus, all group members are free to spam the chat if they wish.

What are ChatGPT group chats and why should you try them?

ChatGPT group chat allows users to come together to make plans or work on projects. Users can interact and give prompts to the AI ​​in the same conversation. Responses are dictated by GPT5.1 Auto, which selects the ideal model to respond based on each signal.
Group chats are separate from your private conversations with OpenAI models.

How do you start a group chat in Chatgpt?

To create your own group chat on ChatGPT, all you need to do is tap or click on the people icon in any new or existing chat with the AI ​​model. You can then invite up to 20 members to chat. Once you send the invite, the AI ​​will create a separate group chat, and your individual chat will remain uninterrupted.

Once people join, you can start sharing ideas or making travel plans with ChatGPT.

How does ChatGPT respond to always or only being mentioned in a group?

OpenAI claims that the company has taught ChatGPT new social behaviors specifically for group chats. The AI ​​will monitor the flow of the conversation and pitch in when it feels it should speak, otherwise remain silent. Users can also refer to “ChatGPT” to get direct responses.

To add a fun element, ChatGPT can respond to messages with emojis or personalize images based on a user’s profile picture when asked.
