Using generative chatbots to write a formal spec is the most stupid idea ever. Specs are all about reasoning. You need to do the thinking to model the system in a very simplified manner. Formal methods and the generative BS are at the antipodes of reliability. This is an insult to reason. Please keep this nonsense away from the serious parts of CS.

Anyone who has tried to write formal verification will tell you that there is a WIDE gap between thinking and writing the specs.

Any tool that makes formal verification more accessible, should be welcome.

I believe the valuable part is how accessible we make thinking together with machines.

Us human are great at create innovative solutions, not so great at check and verify every single thing that can go wrong. Machines help with that.
