Axiom Uses AI Agent Swarms to Formalize Finite Simple Groups Proof
- AI agent swarms converted the 15,000-page CFSG theorem into ~40 million lines of Lean code in 24 days, achieving computer verification.
- Scale increased 4,000x compared to early-year capabilities (10k lines/weeks), driven by rebuilding models, harnesses, and infrastructure.
- Demonstrates effective 'human-in-the-loop' synergy: mathematicians steer direction while AI agents handle massive-scale formalization, solving the issue of no single reader mastering the original proof.
