Tau Ceti is now released as a new “Mathlib for AIs”—a formalized math resource aimed at letting AI systems work with much larger amounts of verified mathematics than human review alone can handle.

The project is described as the brainchild of Kim Morrison at Lean FRO / Lean Prover, and it is framed as a way to move fast while scaling formal math beyond traditional human bottlenecks.
