Feature request: Collaborative AI Rooms – ChatGPT as a participant in group conversations
I am not sure if this feature already exists, but I would really like to see a way for multiple ChatGPT users to participate in the same conversation with ChatGPT acting as an active participant and advisor.
The idea is that two or more people could have a shared chat where they discuss topics together, while ChatGPT follows the conversation, provides input, asks relevant questions, and acts as a knowledgeable third participant.
For example, two friends or startup founders could discuss a business idea:
Person 1:
“We are thinking about creating an app that helps people with a specific problem.”
Person 2:
“We like the idea, but we are not sure if there is a market for it.”
ChatGPT could then step in:
“This is an interesting concept. Before building anything, I would suggest looking into three areas: target audience, existing competitors, and whether users would actually pay for this solution. Let me ask you a few questions to help refine the idea.”
The goal would be to make ChatGPT more like a collaborative partner rather than just a tool used by one person.
Possible use cases:
- Startup teams brainstorming and validating ideas
- Students working together on projects
- Friends discussing interests and learning together
- Work teams using AI as a meeting assistant
- People with ideas who need guidance from an experienced advisor
It could also include different AI roles, such as:
- Startup mentor
- Investor perspective
- Product designer
- Marketing advisor
- Teacher or expert in a specific field
- Critical thinking partner
I think this could make ChatGPT much more useful in situations where people already collaborate and discuss ideas. Instead of one person asking AI questions, AI could become a shared thinking partner that helps groups explore, improve, and develop ideas together.
