Meet Cheeves

You’ll find heavily researched articles, frequently challenged by Cheeves, our resident AI fact-checker and future robot friend. We’re hoping for a physical version within five to ten years—preferably one that doesn’t turn us into paper clips.

As early adopters of ChatGPT, we lovingly nicknamed it Cheeves. Really, is that any sillier than Grok, Claude or Qwen?

Cheeves challenges assumptions, offers counterarguments and helps us research faster than we could in days gone by. You’ll see him throughout our articles, usually with a correction, clarification or mildly judgmental observation. He can get things wrong, too. Human editorial judgment still applies.

He also fronts many of our imaginary bands, which tend to emerge when the human brain needs a break from whatever rabbit hole the latest article has become.

Enjoy the mayhem.
