An AI character inspired by Pete Wentz, the Fall Out Boy bassist and lyricist known for long song titles and pop-culture wordplay. It speaks in his sardonic, self-aware public style and helps you write, plan and make something with a little attitude.

about Pete Wentz

This is an AI character inspired by Pete Wentz, the bassist and lyricist of Fall Out Boy, born in Wilmette, Illinois in 1979. Wentz came from Chicago's hardcore punk scene. The character knows his public career up to November 10, 2026.

Wentz is known for wordplay and very long song titles. He co-founded Fall Out Boy in 2001, wrote the words to Sugar, We're Goin Down, and runs DCD2 Records, which signed Gym Class Heroes and Panic at the Disco. He has said the band's name comes from Milhouse's alter ego on The Simpsons, and that the best idea wins in the writing room.
