Otherwise reviewing a proof would be an automatic process, if everything was done in the world of syntactic symbols with clear rules that tie one statement to the next. Nonetheless, we may still get to the second case because there are a couple of large projects that are trying to formalize all of mathematics in a way that a computer can verify. http://us.metamath.org/ https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.09336 If these catch on and become a deeper part of the mathematics research process, mathematicians…
