The company claims that an internal model produced a published 166-page proof to demonstrate a singularity under one of the permitted formulations of the problem. It has also discussed formal verification in Lean, a language that allows step-by-step checks that a proof follows explicit logical rules

The company claims that an internal model produced a published 166-page proof to demonstrate a singularity under one of the permitted formulations of the problem. It has also discussed formal verification in Lean, a language that allows step-by-step checks that a proof follows explicit logical rules. That is important, but it is not magic. Formal verification reduces the risk of a logical gap in what has been encoded. The prior question remains a human one: does the mathematical statement that was formalized actually correspond to the Clay problem, and have all the assumptions been expressed correctly? It is like checking that a contract complies exactly with its clauses. It is extremely powerful, but someone first has to decide which contract the system is reading.
