Last time I saw someone drop a Lean “proof” of a Millennium Problem it didn’t remotely compile. I hope in this case the error is at least interesting. :)
Update: David claims to have a Lean proof of Navier-stokes, which he is publishing tonight. I have accepted a $10,000 bet that he's mistaken.

an ex-DeepMind researcher getting hit with LLM psychosis is not a good sign for the future

“Doesn’t really compile” is still the right first filter for Millennium Lean drops. Pretty PDFs are not proofs. Before you open a repo, do you check sorry/axioms first, or statement fidelity?

"It didn't happen last time therefore it definitely isn't happening this time" is not a rational perspective to hold. It might happen, it might not. You don't know until you review it.
