    Same approach for Julias stdlib: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discourse.julialang.org&#x2F;t&#x2F;formalizing-julia-in-lean-and-finding-400-bugs-in-base&#x2F;140243" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discourse.julialang.org&#x2F;t&#x2F;formalizing-julia-in-lean-...</a>

    AI does not kill research, research kills pretty much itself already.

    Lean can check Lean code, not arbitrary code. There&#x27;s no telling what gets lost in translation. There&#x27;s other formal verification systems out there like Z3 which live alongside the code and can verify the actual implementation. There&#x27;s so much hype around Lean but few people actually understand it. But hey who needs to understand anything anymore? We have vibe coding!<p>And whole article consists of blatantly Claude-generated text. Way to throw credibility out the window.

      Some parts of this are true, but bringing up z3 is kind of a random tangent without any actual knowledge to be shared behind it.

    For the love of God please stop puking slop everywhere and write some copy by hand.<p>So many posts nowadays might as well just be the one-shot prompt and a one line summary.<p>For example, &quot;I asked Claude to formally verify Python with Lean. It found lots of bugs. I checked a few by hand... just kidding!!&quot;

      Stop using the word slop. It&#x27;s a joke at this point.

      Title says formalizing, article amounts to &quot;we asked claude to check one result with lean, got bad results, then we told it to make no mistakes&quot;.
