It makes you second guess if the opponent is doing human level moves or engine perfect moves. Cheating isn’t a theoretical, it has happened.

- gigatexal 3y agoAll I was saying is that the truly great make do with the situation and innovate and press on. Corrupt referees in a basketball game? Shoot more 3s, adapt, try and take the refs out of the calculus. In chess why would it be different? So they might be cheating. Play as best you can. The allegation or even accusation of cheating is such a high bar that rubicon should only be crossed if there’s legit strong evidence. As I recall Hans Neimen was never shown or proven to have cheated in his matches against Carlsen even while he admitted to cheating online in the past.
