Pretty soon, this is going to mean the entire historical math literature will be formalized (or, in some cases, found to be in error). Consider the implications of that for training theorem provers.

What's more, there's almost surely going to turn out to be a large amount of human generated mathematics that's "basically" correct, in the sense that there exists a formal proof that morally fits the arc of the human proof, but there's informal/vague reasoning used (e.g. diagram arguments, etc) that are hard to really formalize, but an expert can use consistently without making a mistake. This will take a long time to formalize, and I expect will require a large amount of human and AI effort.
This particular field seems ideal for AI, since verification enables identification of failure at all levels. If the definitions are wrong the theorems won't work and applications elsewhere won't work.
