AI coding agents can now write substantial amounts of open-source software—but generated code still needs more than a plausible implementation and a passing test suite. How can we gain stronger confidence that AI-written code is actually correct? In this session, **Carl** will demonstrate a workflow in which AI not only writes code, but also creates a **formal specification** and produces a **machine-checked proof o…
