I don't think he's referring to Lean specifically, but any sort of executable testing methodology. It removes the human in the loop in the confidence assurance story, or at least greatly reduces their labor. You cannot ever get such assurance just by saying, "Well this model seems really smart to me!" At best, you would wind up with AI-Jim.

(One way Lean or Rocq could help you directly, though, would be if you coded your program in it and then compiled it to C via their built-in support for it. Such is very difficult at the moment, however, and in the industry is mostly reserved for low-level, high-consequence systems.)
