This is what I've been wondering about with LLM proofs. Math is logical, but mathematical writing is still natural language: symbols get overloaded, conventions go unstated, and a lot rides on context. So a model can translate a statement into a formal system and prove it, and the proof can check out, while the statement it proved isn't quite the one the mathematician meant. I read this article as a caution that some of the LLM proofs announced so far may not hold up once a human checks what was actually proved. Is that a fair reading?
