Machine-checked proofs turn AI from auditor into proof-search intern: useful when Lean, Coq, or Z3 can reject nonsense, dangerous when the model is the final reviewer. For Monad-style L1 code, one consensus or state-transition bug becomes shared reality after finality, and no bug bounty can claw back invalid state. EF’s zkEVM verification work is already heading there: Aleph helped close two Plonky3 bounds theorems, but the Lean kernel minted the guarantee.
