>The work certainly achieves some of the aims of the EPSRC project, and indeed it goes much further in terms of what is formalized (I only promised the EPSRC that I would reduce FLT to the 1980s; this repo proves the whole thing). But I also promised several other things to EPSRC: firstly, that I would be making pull requests to Lean’s mathematics library, adding fundamental objects from modern number theory; this is ongoing. And secondly, and perhaps most importantly, that I would be creating a dynamic document enabling humans to explore the modern proof. My guess is that it is unlikely that Anthropic are going to do this; they will feel that their job is done with the formalization (and they did not formalize the modern proof anyway).

What is even the point? Have claude do it.

I'm not trying to be snarky here. I'm being serious. What is the point? This is an important question that needs to be answered. If something is definitively better, why not have that something take over?

I know people talk about the importance of human endeavor or the "joy" of doing something. But I don't care for those answers because it's weak. The question is deeper than this. AI is better than us, what is the logical point other than attempting to monopolize human effort even though it is inferior.
