Not exactly (disclaimer - on the checksum team). Our goal is to generate end to end tests that mimic user behavior, using real production sessions to train our models. These end to end tests could then be run during development, effectively smoking out real potential bugs before your latest deployment makes it into production. Of course, part of the generated tests could involve fuzz testing if it makes sense (if there is a form field, input, etc.)
As for checksum.ai, is it some kind of fuzzer? I think fuzz-testing is under utilized, in fact, many of my colleagues don't even know that it exists, and I have never been on a project where it was done. Generally, fuzzing is done in the context of security, but I see no reason why it should be limited to it.
