A small throwback to our AI Without Borders Summer School earlier this summer… featuring a photo discreetly taken by one of our students! 🤭 Visiting Shanghai from Australia! This summer school, welcoming students from around the world, was organized with Sijia Kong, Sinan Zhu, and Huijuan Gu.

There are still a few weeks left to submit to EARL. We welcome your submissions!

The PC Chairs are presenting the welcome remarks. #ICML2026 has over 20,000 in-person attendees!

The impact of Claude: it - has become very cheap to produce submissions (quality?) - remains very expensive to evaluate them by humans. Possible solutions are limited (I don't advocate ... yet) - Limit submissions - LLM assistance for reviews - Partially restrict authors to submit after rejections

Big lack of qualified reviewers? The cost of generation seems headed to 0 relative to the cost of verification; seems obvious that we must change norms so verification is seen as more of a contribution? What if we require authors to review for some number of conferences before being able to submit?
