Sounds like you've stumbled into the wonderful world of machine-learning guided proof synthesis! While I don't think the full system you're describing has been built yet, many similar systems and pieces have. In terms of the initial phase of supervised learning on existing proofs to prove new ones, there's TacticToe (https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.00596), Tactician (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2008.00120.pdf), CoqGym/ASTactic (https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.09381), Proverbot9001 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.07794), and Diva (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3510003.3510138#sec-terms), among others. Most of…

I would not discount the potential of LLM's to support research level mathematics. There's interesting research going into combining the LEAN theorem prover with LLMs, e.g., this recent paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.01344 "... automatically solving multiple challenging problems drawn from high school olympiads." This combination of GPT and LEAN is the first thing that has finally got me really interested in the potential of LEAN. And LEAN very directly addresses the "bullshit" issue, since it formally verifies whether or not a proof is correct (it's like a compiler like Rust, but for…

That’s the topic of my thesis ! Here’s some work by open ai doing exactly that ! :) https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.01344
