On August 1st, Heval from Brunswick, a former cook now working as a controller, made an appearance on "Quizzed - Hunted," one of Germany's most popular quiz shows. Heval, who impressed viewers with his impressive 4,000 euro win in the first round, utilized an AI program to simulate a quick-fire round from the show.
