The most recent ChatGPT feature that OpenAI is experimenting with is called group conversations. Indeed, the AI chatbot is creating tools that facilitate teamwork. You use ChatGPT for everyday tasks or more, and you invite friends or family. Meta currently controls WhatsApp and other social media applications, so OpenAI is not the first tech firm to include this into its AI chatbot.
Group work in Claude is also supported by Anthropic. ChatGPT has already introduced daily articles that are available at the beginning of the day, and group chats are starting to appear as well, albeit in small numbers.
How ChatGPT Group Chats Operate
A group conversation can be started by any ChatGPT member, and others can be invited. To use the feature or generate the group’s URL, all you need is a ChatGPT account. You can have up to 20 participants in a group using OpenAI, which is a respectable number. All of these conversations will be accessible on the side panel in a new area, and the company will require the user to submit their profile name and a picture for the group.
The distinctive feature of this chat option is that ChatGPT will be an integral part of the conversation, either when you directly initiate it by tagging or the AI recognizes the type of chat and reacts appropriately. The responses from ChatGPT will differ significantly because one user may be using the Pro edition of the AI chatbot while the other may be utilizing the free tier. The AI chatbot can respond to your messages using emoticons, and the user who created the group has the ability to dismiss other members.
The GPT 5.1 Auto version of ChatGPT is used in group chats, and it chooses the optimal AI model that is compatible with the user’s plan.
The company claims that ChatGPT 5.1, which is now accessible to the general public, will be significantly smarter and more conversational than GPT 5.
According to OpenAI, GPT 5.1 was created in response to user input, which called for a more amiable and engaging version of GPT. According to OpenAI, GPT 5.1 will provide enhancements in all areas, including intelligence and user communication.
