Prediction: AI will make formal verification go mainstream (via) Martin Kleppmann makes the case for formal verification languages (things like Dafny, Nagini, and Verus) to finally start achieving more mainstream usage. Code generated by LLMs can benefit enormously from more robust verification, and LLMs themselves make these notoriously difficult systems easier to work with.
The paper Can LLMs Enable Verification in Mainstream Programming? by JetBrains Research in March 2025 found that Claude 3.5 Sonnet saw promising results for the three languages I listed above.
