The ‘Pain in the Ass’ Math That Could Save Vibe Coding From Itself

Applying AI to formal verification could solve the reliability and security risks introduced by AI-generated code while dramatically lowering the cost of securing critical software.

A wave of startups and researchers are using generative AI to automate formal software verification, a mathematical method for proving code is bug-free that has historically been too expensive and slow for widespread use. Companies like &Truth, which just launched with $70 million, Harmonic, and Anthropic are building tools to verify software and hardware designs, though some experts warn that verification still relies on flawed human or AI assumptions.
