While I really don't have much love for the Mistral products due to being way behind even cheap open weights Chinese models such as the Qwens, DeepSeeks etc of this world, this is an interesting (possibly new) approach:

https://www.heise.de/news/Leanstral-1-5-Mistrals-KI-Modell-fuer-formale-Beweise-ist-Open-Source-11355236.html / https://www.heise.de/en/news/Leanstral-1-5-Mistral-s-AI-model-for-formal-proofs-is-open-source-11355532.html

With the money quote being:
"In addition to mathematical proofs, Mistral demonstrates a pipeline for automatic bug detection in Rust projects. The tool Aeneas translates Rust code to Lean, after which Leanstral derives correctness properties and attempts to prove or disprove them. "

This goes past the very elaborated statistical parrots that LLMs are and goes into the formal verification territory.

As much as I understand this, this is closer to a model checking approach than what we had before and would in theory thus even allow to check for concurrency issues like race conditions etc reliably.

The hard part there of course was to provide the provably correct bridge between the code to be tested and an efficient model checker representation of the same code. Asking the model checker smart "questions" is another part as is translating findings back to the original code.
Since the LLMs guzzle up RAM and CPU already, the consumption of the model checkers / theorem provers isn't an issue anymore (as long as the model they're being fed is efficient...)

Lets see how well the LLMs do on this work.

I'm sure there are already US or Chinese models that do this or will replicate it in a months time.
I think I read about Meta experimenting on this as well.

Did I get the announcement right? Has anyone had their hands on said model+prover combo already? Is anyone aware of Chinese/US equivalent contraptions?
Any updates @heiseonline @heisedeveloper can provide on those questions in the article, especially on competitors?

@Barbarast ! Helemaal vergeten te posten dat we vorige week met #Maqam de mooiste operastukken in een uitverkocht Maldestijn ten gehore mochten brengen.... Een Opera de Mariage.

I'm only like 10% into the tutorial, but this language is CRAZY (fun)! :awesome: 😄

I try to learn the fundamentals of it, so I can use the backend of it in #Aeneas... so I can ultimately formally verify my #Rust crate (former attempts with #Creusot and #Kani failed for me).

Have a beautiful Day of Aphrodite aka Venus' Day aka Frigg's Day aka Friday 🌹

Iulius #Caesar proclaimed his descent from #Aeneas, son of the goddess #Venus, at the funeral of his aunt (Suetonius Div. Iul. 6). He claimed the goddess' protection in his battle against #Pompey in 48 BCE, who feared that "the family of Caesar, which went back to Venus, was to receive glory and splendour through him" (Pompey 68.2).

In de Ilias is een voorspelling dat #Aeneas ooit over Troje zal heersen, maar de antieke traditie kende hem ook als stichter van diverse steden in Italië. Hoe harmoniseerde men dat?

My cat, Aeneas, is now 16 years old… So a picture from when he was a little boy and a recent picture of my, still ‘little’ boy…

@stroibe974 I had done some tests of synchronized text and audio in #EPUB 3 using #tex4ebook and #Aeneas (https://www.readbeyond.it/aeneas/)
