A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
When a fact can be demonstrated, force is unnecessary; when it cannot be demonstrated, an appeal to force is infamous. In the presence of the unknown all have an equal right to think.
Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator
Lecture (1873-12) “Individuality,” Chicago Free Religious Society

Still waiting for the call for paper for Tests and Proofs (TAP) conference? Wait no longer: we are thrilled to announce that TAP is now a track at FM 2026: https://conf.researchr.org/track/fm-2026/fm-2026-tap#Call-for-Papers
Agnosticism is not properly described as a “negative” creed, nor indeed as a creed of any kind, except in so far as it expresses absolute faith in the validity of a principle which is as much ethical as intellectual. This principle may be stated in various ways, but they all amount to this: that it is wrong for a man to say that he is certain of the objective truth of any proposition unless he can produce evidence which logically justifies that certainty. This is what Agnosticism asserts; and, in my opinion, it is all that is essential to Agnosticism.

I'm once again very grateful to a physicist-turned-philosopher friend who told me that she had heard from a colleague that Lakatos Proofs and Refutations is fun reading. Her colleague was right.

A quotation from Nassim Nicholas Taleb
The same past data can confirm a theory and its exact opposite! If you survive until tomorrow, it could mean that either a) you are more likely to be immortal or b) that you are closer to death. Both conclusions rely on the exact same data.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb (b. 1960) Lebanese-American essayist, statistician, risk analyst, aphorist
The Black Swan, Part 2, ch. 11 “How to Look for Bird Poop” (2007)

"Any good theorem should have several proofs, the more the better. For two reasons: usually, different proofs have different strengths and weaknesses, and they generalise in different directions – they are not just repetitions of each other." – Michael Atiyah (1929-2019)

Totally agree! Unit tests and usage of #LLMs in that area are a bad combo (both for implementation and tests).
However, I'd like to give you some "food for thought":
What if the LLM was generating code against a (human written) #proof?
See this blog post, where they've written a proof with #Kani, a model checker in #Rust and let the #LLM generate the implementation until the proof passes:
#WarInUkraine #Ukraine #Russia
Could the #Assasination of #AndriyPortnov, a former top aide to ex-Ukrainian President #ViktorYanukovych be a sign of the #Russian #FSB tying up loose ends?
As the curatorial and investigative journalist Prof. #SethAbramson showed in his national bestseller on the Russia-Ukraine crisis—#Proof of #Corruption (#Macmillan, 2020)—, there were ample connections between the #Kremlin and #Kyiv during that period; to say the least.
A quotation from Ambrose Bierce
PROOF, n. Evidence having a shade more of plausibility than of unlikelihood. The testimony of two credible witnesses as opposed to that of only one.
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
“Proof,” The Devil’s Dictionary (1911)
