NeurIPS 2026 workshop to focus on AI agents doing end-to-end ML research
A new NeurIPS 2026 Workshop on Autonomous ML Research is being announced for work where an AI agent:
- performs end-to-end research, or
- makes the decisive contribution to a machine learning discovery
The organizers say the goal is to make autonomous research meaningful in a way that strengthens the ML community rather than undermining human researchers. The thread also says the workshop will include “a couple of twists,” suggesting a more opinionated format than a standard call for papers.
