ChatGPT Decides It Hasn’t Ruined Enough Lives Yet — Now Launches Group Chats

So apparently, the geniuses over at OpenAI woke up one morning, spilled coffee on their keyboards, and decided, “You know what the world needs? ChatGPT — but in groups.” Because clearly, having one person talking to a chatbot wasn’t chaotic enough, now it’s *fucking multiplayer mode*. The pilot’s kicking off in Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, and Taiwan — probably because those regions have the combined patience and bandwidth to tolerate this digital circus.

This shiny new “feature” lets multiple users chat with the same AI at once. Imagine that — a bunch of humans and one overworked AI, all trying to talk over each other while it politely answers like some corporate hostage. OpenAI claims it’s for “collaborative discussions” or “brainstorming” — which we all know means your boss will soon say, “Let’s bring the AI into this meeting,” right before your last few brain cells commit self-termination.

Of course, they’re starting small. It’s a “pilot program” — tech speak for “we’re gonna test this until it breaks and quietly pretend it was always part of the plan.” There’s no timeline for the global rollout yet, but let’s face it — once this monstrosity proves “successful,” we’ll all be stuck pretending the group AI responses are clever while silently praying it crashes.

Because nothing says “progress” like turning every group chat into a goddamn philosophy symposium moderated by a machine that’s sick of your shit.

Anyway, if you want to watch the world collectively lose the remaining shreds of its sanity, here’s the link: https://techcrunch.com/2025/11/14/chatgpt-launches-pilot-group-chats-across-japan-new-zealand-south-korea-and-taiwan/

Reminds me of the time some bright spark in the office thought it’d be “fun” to combine the dev Slack channel with customer support. Three minutes later, half the team was crying, the other half was threatening homicide, and the server caught fire. But sure, group chats with AI — what could possibly go wrong?
