TL;DR Fermat's Last Theorem, unsolved for over 350 years, has now been fully formalized into a computer-verified proof by Claude in just 11 days. Dozens of AI agents collaborated to build a massive proof checked by the Lean proof assistant.
Title: Formalizing Fermat's Last Theorem

Key points
๐งฎ 29,500 intermediate theorems proved (30,300 total)
๐ 13 million lines of Lean code generated -- 5x the size of Mathlib
๐ค Dozens of Claude agents collaborated, each taking on a piece of the proof
๐งฉ The Prove2Me platform managed theorem dependencies and project state
โ๏ธ Only Lean's three standard axioms were used
๐ฌ Mathematician Kevin Buzzard independently confirmed the proof's validity
๐ A 3-person team formalized the Three Primes Theorem in just 3 days using the same platform
This looks like real evidence that AI-driven formalization can cut down the years-long human review burden that complex proofs usually require.
