Source Check Verdicts

confirmed95% confidence

Last checked: 4/9/2026

The source text directly confirms all key fields: (1) person is Peter Wildeford, (2) org is Rethink Priorities, (3) role includes co-founder status and AI focus (described as 'focusing on projects in artificial intelligence'), and (4) startDate of 2018 is explicitly stated ('Since 2018, co-founders Marcus Davis and Peter Wildeford have served as Co-CEOs'). The record's designation of 'AI Researcher' aligns with the source's description of his focus on 'artificial intelligence' projects. While the source uses 'Co-CEO' rather than 'Co-Founder & AI Researcher,' both roles are confirmed in the text.
