Right, because to trust that those "formal specifications" are correct, you will have to write them by hand.

First you need to write these specifications and if you say just tell the llm to write them - then how would it be different from just tell the llm to write the program?

I guess you can argue that these are two independent processes so you can combine them to get something more reliable than both - this might be a viable path. But from what I heard writing formal specifications is just really hard - I haven't seen anything practical in this area.
