The problem is that generating either code or proofs with LLMs is very expensive, and generating good proofs (I don't mean elegant, I mean proving the most important properties) is probably not very fast, either. Reducing the verification time of a program from 100 years to 10 years or the cost from $1bn to $100m is still not practical enough to become truly mainstream.

Things can be improved when people help guide and focus the LLMs, but these people still need to be formal methods experts.
