This is the real deal. AlphaGeometry solved a very limited set of problems with a lot of brute force search. This is a much broader method that I believe will have a great impact on the way we do mathematics. They are really implementing a self-feeding pipeling from natural language mathematics to formalized mathematics where they can train both formalization and proving. In principle this pipeline can also learn basic theory building like creating auxilliary definitions and Lemmas. I really think this is the holy grail of proof-assistance and will allow us to formalize most mathematics that we create very naturally. Humans will work podt-rigorously and let the machine asisst with filling in the details.
