Abstract
We are concerned here with the nature of proof and what proof will become in this age of machines. We do so by comparing the values associated with (traditional) community based proof verification to those associated with computer proof verification. We finish by proposing ways that computer proofs might incorporate successful strategies from human experiences.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin publishes expository articles on contemporary mathematical research, written in a way that gives insight to mathematicians who may not be experts in the particular topic. The Bulletin also publishes reviews of selected books in mathematics and short articles in the Mathematical Perspectives section, both by invitation only.
