DESCRIPTION:"In 1977, the first computer-assisted 
 proof of a mathematical theorem was presented by K
 . Appel and W. Haken. The proof was met with a lot
  of criticism from both mathematicians and philoso
 phers. The arguments against acceptance of compute
 r-assisted proofs vary: it is not verifiable by hu
 man beings because it is impossible to survey; the
  actions performed by a computer do not constitute
  mathematical proof, but merely a number of calcul
 ations; the method does not contribute to the exis
 ting mathematical practice, etc. I present some ex
 amples of computer-assisted proofs, including Appe
 l and Haken's work. Then, I analyze the most famou
 s arguments against equating computer-based and hu
 man-based proofs in mathematics and examine the ph
 ilosophical assumptions behind the presented criti
 cism. In the conclusion, I talk about whether the 
 philosophical assumptions are justified."
