Erdos, explores what researchers call autoformalization, the process of converting traditional mathematical proofs into formats machines can verify using tools such as Lean and Coq.
Computer-assisted of mathematical proofs are not new. For example, computers were used to confirm the so-called 'four color theorem.' In a short release, 'Proof by computer,' the American Mathematical ...
AI could soon spew out hundreds of mathematical proofs that look "right" but contain hidden flaws, or proofs so complex we can't verify them. How will we know if they're right?
