Chess AIs are so good that consistently cheating will put you at a very very high rating relative to most players. It’s also very noticeable as AI-suggested moves have very low centipawn loss (in other words, AI-assisted moves are usually recognizably the “best” move/ the same as what a cheat detection AI run by the chess service would suggest). A pattern of regularly making probabilistically unlimely centipawn loss move sequences can be detected. Other heuristics used are mouse moving offscreen IIRC. A lot of top chess players only play bullet and blitz online where cheating is too hard, you’d have to completely automate it, at which point you are no longer playing a game but just watching an AI play pros until it gets banned. If you cheat in FPS you still feel like you’re playing the game, just on an easier setting. But with Chess it’s basically just delegating the game to something else. When playing online there is little incentivize to do this.
