Leaning on AI - new blog post about using AI to learn Lean rkirov.github.io/posts/lean5/

"Is this JS function pure?" - wrote a short blog post summary of the pure JS function poll I ran in 2019 rkirov.github.io/posts/pure/

Falling in an odd rabbit-hole of visualizing logical deductions. Why isn't there a mobile friendly game for proving the ~100 core theorems of propositional and first-order logic? [1] incredible.pm [2] www.winterdrache.de/freeware/dom... [3] www.jfsowa.com/peirce/ms514...

AI boosts productivity until a breaking point where domain expertise becomes unnecessary (coding, formalizing math, etc.) - you can go straight from idea to implementation without interaction with the underlying tool. Some are betting that arrives soon enough that they don’t invest in learning.

You can’t convince me Russell wouldn’t have used Lean if he had a chance.

Calling Bay Area math enthusiasts interested in weekly sessions doing rigorous foundational mathematics the modern way - with computer-verified proofs in Lean. (An experiment in rigorous math education outside traditional academia)

Newest installment in my journey of learning how to do math proofs with computers rkirov.github.io/posts/lean4/.

The more I learn about logic, it dawns on me that math is sloppy about syntax (“by abuse of notation”), while software engineering is sloppy about semantics (“the purpose of a system is what it does”) and only when analyzing logical systems their interplay is explored.

Ironic that in logic "model" is the thing imbued with meaning (contrasting the syntactic meaningless moving of symbols around), while in ML "model" is the meaningless (but useful) pile of bits, while the "real world" which the ML model models is where the meaning is.

We're excited to share the Lean FRO Year 3 Roadmap today! It builds on work completed in the first two years of Lean FRO operations and will guide all #LeanLang development through July 2026. ➡️ Read the roadmap at lean-lang.org/fro/ #LeanProver #FormalMathematics #FormalVerification
