Who says you need to? You can't definitively prove that prior art does/doesn't exist, either. That's not an impediment to getting a patent. The patent will be examined and issued based on the evidence found. If invalidating evidence is found later, the patent can be invalidated.

In a legal context what is necessary is evidence, not a math/logic formal proof.

Because AI cannot pay fines, go to jail, or be assigned the rights of a human. However, a human who uses AI can. If you use AI to infringe copyright, you have infringed the copyright, not the AI.

Unless you are questioning the truthfulness of libraries, it is possible to definitively prove that prior art does exist
