Get ready for a game-changer! OpenAI has unveiled a new feature that will revolutionize how we collaborate and plan together. The power of group chats has arrived in ChatGPT, and it's an exciting development!
But here's the catch: it's currently a small-scale experiment, and not everyone can access it yet. OpenAI has rolled out this feature as a pilot program, and it's only available to users in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, and Taiwan. So, if you're based in the United States, you'll have to wait a bit longer to join the fun.
The official announcement from OpenAI's blog post reads: "Group chats are now available on mobile and web for logged-in ChatGPT users on specific plans in the aforementioned countries. This pilot project is a stepping stone towards creating shared experiences within ChatGPT, and we're eager to learn from user feedback to guide our expansion plans."
For those lucky enough to be part of this pilot, OpenAI has provided some simple instructions. You can access the group chat feature by tapping the people icon in the upper-right corner of any chat. From there, you'll get a unique link to share with your friends or colleagues. This link will create a dedicated group chat, and everyone joining will need to set up a quick user profile to introduce themselves to the group. All group chats will be neatly organized in a dedicated section of the sidebar, keeping them separate from your regular ChatGPT conversations.
And this is the part most people miss: OpenAI assures us that your private chats will remain private and will not be shared with anyone in the group chats. Your personal conversations are safe and secure.
We're keeping a close eye on this pilot, and we'll let you know as soon as it becomes available in the U.S. or any other region. Until then, stay tuned and imagine the endless possibilities of collaborative AI-assisted planning!
