The Final Form of Software Development

AI agents are now writing RISC-V assembly code and formally verifying it using the Lean proof assistant — automatically, at 200–600 commits per day. This approach sidesteps the complexity of Rust, C, and undefined behavior by targeting the simplest possible abstraction: registers, memory, and machine instructions. For zkVM guest programs where bugs are nearly impossible to debug post-deployment, this assembly + Lean paradigm may be the most rigorous path to correctness.
