What if a mathematical proof hid a gap beneath a very confident answer?

What if a mathematical proof hid a gap beneath a very confident answer?

In AlphaProof Nexus tests, a model proposes steps and Lean checks whether each one follows from the previous ones. If a justification is missing, the proof is incomplete: the system must look for another route.

The episode describes two revealing failures. Sometimes, the model would write “sorry”, leaving a step unfinished. Other times, it would claim that a known theorem existed when it had actually invented it. Lean helps detect a missing proof, even when the text sounds convincing.
