The whole post sounds very generic and “for all good, against all bad”

NeurIPS decisions have now been released! To provide transparency into our reviewing and decision-making process, we asked chairs from the Main Program and Dataset and Benchmarks Tracks to write a blog post reflecting on their process this year (links in🧵)

The School of #ComputerScience at #USyd is hiring! Multiple continuing (≡ tenure-track) positions in all areas, with particular focus on the ones listed below. Women and candidates from underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply. ⏰ Apply by Dec 1: usyd.wd105.myworkdayjobs.com/en-GB/USYD_E...

The video of Dan Roy's talk at the Post-Bayes seminar series on "excess risk bounds and scaling laws" is now online. The talk was super insightful, watch it of you missed the live streaming yesterday! @roydanroy.bsky.social youtu.be/lr0WugfOA88

Time to figure out which provable guarantees one can(not) give on XAI! Workshop "Theory of Explainable Machine Learning", Dec 2 in Copenhagen as part of the Ellis Unconference/EurIPS. Submission deadline: Oct 15. sites.google.com/view/theory-... eurips.cc/ellis/

This seems rather standard. Nothing new except scale. I still wonder about all the noise and emails about pruning the accepted papers. And that is not explained in the post. 😕

#CVPR2026 is looking for Publicity Chairs! The role includes working as part of a team to share conference updates across social media (X, Bluesky, etc.) and answering community questions. Interested? Check out the self-nomination form in the thread.

Continuing our efforts to make conferences more inclusive and family-friendly, we’re excited to share that #EurIPS 2025 will offer childcare on site ! Childcare registration will be available through the conference registration system. The deadline for childcare registration is November 10, 2025.

📢 Come be my colleague: the School of Computer Science at 🇦🇺 #USyd is hiring! Multiple tenure-track-equivalent positions across the board (including theory!), but with a specific focus on Cybersecurity and Trustworthy Digital Systems, and ML/AI. ⏰ Dec 1 usyd.wd105.myworkdayjobs.com/en-GB/USYD_E...

🐝 The #3DV2026 Nectar Track is open for submissions! 1️⃣ Spotlight Track: Showcase your strong paper from recent venues with an oral presentation + poster. 2️⃣ Exploration Edge Track: Present preliminary ideas, research hurdles, or demos in a poster session. More details: ⬇️

Or, you could visit @nldlconference.bsky.social and hunt them in between sessions 😉 The abstract track is still open at www.nldl.org/submission/c...

Same, I reviewed for AAAI and did not find "AI review" useful ICLR'25 did exactly the same as your idea, but more than 70% of the reviews that received the feedback were not updated Auditing human reviews with LM should be helpful, but it should come with a more rigorous enforcement and evaluation

I just reviewed for AAAI and I wasn't sold on the AI reviewer. It provides a decent breadth but it's a bit shallow. What I think would be superior is an LLM that audits the reviewer's actual review, attempts to identify weak arguments by the reviewer, and tries to get the reviewer to correct that.

I think the idea is similar to what AAAI'26 is doing (and ICLR'25 did) medium.com/@yoshitomo-m... Personally, I find it helpful for the sake of pre-submission reviews for authors I don't find those helpful enough at this point to address the original issue

I see your point about potential reduction in the rate of submission growth Unless the number of quality (and available) reviewers increases proportionally to the number of submissions, we will face the same problem From the perspective, the acceleration by LM may make the situation even worse

That objective is covered by the Findings track idea (accepted, but no presentation in main conference) like NLP conferences do However, simply accepting more papers won't help us slow down and may even further increase submission volume

Many of us get caught up in the research race. Remember to take care of your body and make time for family. Life’s short, so maximize all facets. My birthday just passed, so I’ve been doing some self-reflection and long-term goal planning.

Inspired by "The Martian": "We need to Suttonize the sh*** out of this"

I coined a new verb on my slack channel. Suttonize: verb. Removing dedicated processing that require careful tuning and replacing it with simpler but more intensive computation. Ex: "We should suttonize this: just remove the encoder and concat the sources together with a few self-attention layers".

I'm currently attending the video Symposium sites.google.com/view/video-a... Starting with already impressively good talks 🤩

At #ICCV2025 we’re hosting the 1st workshop on Geometry-Free Novel View Synthesis & Controllable Video Models! (Or simply: “3D Vision in the era of Video Models”) Our speaker lineup is 🔥🔥🔥 Better grab a seat early 😉 geofreenvs.github.io

The CVPR 2026 deadline has finally been confirmed: Abstract: Nov 6th AoE Paper: Nov 13th AoE Location: Denver, USA cvpr.thecvf.com

I'd be happier with capping at 5!

I think capping at 5 would even be better. Although I can imagine the backlash.

- Cap submissions, say 10 papers per author: I feel it's still too many though - Introduce Findings track to ML and CV communities: I saw ICCV'25 has Findings workshop, great first-step - Bring reviewer mentorship program back: We should educate more reviewers e.g., ICLR 2022 What else?

As usual, my personal opinion ML/CV/NLP communities should "slow down" While controlling an acceptance rate just for the venue's "prestigiousness" sounds nonsense to me e.g., #NeurIPS2025, we (re-)submit too many papers for the number of quality reviewers Potential solutions👇

I wonder what Phil Baty makes of this? 🤔 www.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news/sorb...

Is this the year we finally break up @neuripsconf.bsky.social?

I bet it could simply be for the fact that organizing these conferences is __extremely__ long and painful. It's planned very much in advance and you surely don't want to improvise more than strictly necessary. However the lack of communication surely makes it look like American imperialism.

What's the consensus hall fact/gossip on why Copenhagen 🇩🇰 isn't an official venue? 1. Distance from original venue 2. Administrative overhead & commitments 3. Fear of decentralization ...

This is not OK. I don't submit often to NeurIPS, but I reviewed papers for this conference almost every year. As a reviewer, why would I spend time trying to give a fair opinion on papers if it's what happens in the end???

Very fishy PCs are backpedaling hard now Mistakes were made and not owned

As an SAC for @neuripsconf.bsky.social, I don't agree with PCs approach to reject papers based on ranking. I ranked my accepted papers as requested and explicitly stated that I support the acceptance of all papers. I was not given an explanation of why papers at the end of the rank were rejected.

Reminder for all the last minute registrations to ICLR and uploads for your WACV paper

It may only be a band-aid, but we have just announced our new "Salon des Refusés" sessions for papers rejected due to space constraints: bsky.app/profile/euri...

And lastly, if @neuripsconf.bsky.social would choose to reverse the decisions on the papers affected by space constraints, we would be happy and able to accommodate their presentation

#NeurIPS2025: I am very happy that we have two choices this year, Mexico 🇲🇽 and the US 🇺🇸. This is GREAT 👏. The cherry on top would have been if Copenhagen 🇩🇰 would have also been a real alternative, instead of an "additional venue" only which still requires attendance in one of the primary ones.

@neuripsconf.bsky.social can I get a "comment" on my decision soon?

New BINGO unlocked. We reject you and will decide why later 🤷 #NeurIPS2025

This is so out there. What is NeurIPS trying to be?

It's time to tell the truth: Adam/AdamW is so much tuned for transformers that the hyperparam search required to make it work for other architectures is insane.

Maybe @iclr-conf.bsky.social needs to check their website ASAP😱

Pre-registering my opinion (before my paper's reviews are released) that the AAAI AI reviews are essentially worthless. It's not that they are necessarily bad, but they just have no substance to them. They are at best a long summary with some superficial points pointed out.
