Formalization agents auto-generate errata for papers, says mathematician Armstrong
burny_tech · x · 2026-10-08
Scott N. Armstrong shares his Lean formalization workflow: his agents automatically produce an errata for the paper being formalized, and sometimes a statement of how the formalization differs from the original text, all carefully human-checked. Examples are prominently displayed in the Lean repo for his anomalous diffusion paper with Vlad Vicol.
