Meta’s FAIR team has published six research papers showing how its AI models helped solve six open problems across multiple fields of mathematics. Among the most concrete results, a conjecture by García-Martínez and Pérez-Rodríguez on solvable evolution algebras was disproved with AI playing a central role. The AutoformBot system also formalized 26 mathematics textbooks into Lean 4, producing a library of more than 45,000 declarations and hundreds of thousands of lines of verified code. Meta emphasizes that AI assists mathematicians rather than replacing them, with humans retaining control over problem selection, result interpretation, and proof writing. The use of formal verification systems like Lean makes it possible to confirm irrefutably that AI-generated proofs actually hold.
