G.I.Joe has had multiple crossovers with the Transformers in comics, so should the franchises just share the same world, like how Batman and Superman in DC or Spiderman and the X-Men in Marvel do?

ONLY for the special cross-overs - but NOT in the canon.
And, you made me think of the DreamWave Comics WWII crossover back in ‘03-04; that was terrific, and one I need to re-read. |

Should it always? Nah, you can have them be separate universes. But I do like shared universes, even if you don't do cross-overs. Makes the world feel bigger/more lived in if you do it right.
My Joeverse has G.I. Joe, Transformers, and Jem all together in the wake of Watchmen's ending (or something else that upset the balance of power by wiping out all nukes). I also throw in Troma's Toxic Avenger and related characters, for the heck of it. |

NO.
The only characters GI Joe should crossover with are the south American ones, Action Force and maybe Action Man. Shared universes often annoy me with questions of 'well why doesn't X help Y when Z happens?' |

Not all the time. I see (and myself enjoy) the appeal of a shared universe (if my signature doesn't make it obvious), but would understand if Hasbro prioritizes a stand-along G.I. Joe universe and does crossovers on the side
Maybe for next year's 4th of July I'll commission an artist to draw all the G.I. Joe's of ARAH season 1 and 2; and the human allies of the Autobots (Sparkplug, Spike, Chip, and Carly) enjoying a Jem and the Holograms free concert as Hector Ramirez reports. And it's being transmitted to the Autobots on Cybertron.

I've never liked it, was never a Transformers fan as a kid. Something like MASK or SHIELD would make more sense.
