LLMs Bring Proof Automation to Dependent Types in Lean
Adam Langley explores how LLMs can automate proof writing in Lean, a dependently-typed language, by building a Zstandard decompressor. He finds that LLMs can prove complex invariants in about 20 minutes, potentially making dependent types more practical for everyday software engineering. The article discusses FSE entropy coding, Lean's features, and the challenges of proof engineering.
