What happened
In an interview, Lean creator and AWS VP Leo de Moura discusses how frontier AI models are making formal verification practical for everyday software engineering and mathematics. He explains how AI can translate code and mathematical papers into the Lean proof assistant via autoformalization, allowing developers to find bugs and verify software properties without deep expertise in theorem proving.
