The call for the NeurIPS 2026 Creative AI Track is out!

In its fourth year, NeurIPS 2026 Creative AI Track invites research papers and artworks that explore emerging applications, methods, and critiques of artificial intelligence and machine learning in art, design, and creative practice.

Focusing on the theme of Agency, this year’s track asks: how agency emerges, is exercised, is negotiated, and is contested through creative practice with AI. Agency may belong to an artist, a collaborator, a model, an audience, a platform, a community, or even a larger social and technical system, and may be asserted, delegated, shared, resisted, constrained, or redistributed.

Important dates:
June 30: Submission Portal Opens
August 3 (Anywhere on earth): Submission Deadline
September 18: Decision
October 23: Final Camera-Ready Submission

Following positive feedback from other venues, like STOC and ICML, NeurIPS is pleased to announce a new initiative in partnership with Google: for NeurIPS 2026, authors will have access to Google's Paper Assistant Tool (PAT) to help improve their submissions. 

This program offers authors the opportunity to receive free, automated, and actionable feedback on their manuscripts before the final deadline, private to the authors. It is a completely optional service that is kept strictly private to the authors and will not be used in the review process.

[NeurIPS Conference @NeurIPSConf]

A reminder to all authors planning to send a manuscript to NeurIPS that all submissions MUST have a valid OpenReview profile when submitting.

Please be aware that OpenReview has a moderation policy for newly created profiles: while new profiles created with an institutional email will be activated automatically, those created without an institutional email will go through a moderation process that can take UP TO TWO WEEKS: please plan accordingly.

We will be unable to make any exception for submissions from accounts initiated less than two weeks prior to the deadline.

If you have any questions about the use of OpenReview, please refer to its FAQ: https://t.co/h0WIUWL6Cv

[NeurIPS Conference @NeurIPSConf]

We want to speak directly to the concern many of you have expressed, and we owe you a clear explanation of what happened, why it happened, and where we stand now. We understand this situation caused genuine alarm and we take that seriously.

In preparing the NeurIPS 2026 handbook, we included a link to a US government sanctions tool that covers a significantly broader set of restrictions than those NeurIPS is actually required to follow. This error was due to miscommunication between the NeurIPS Foundation and our legal team; there was never an intention to restrict participation beyond our mandatory compliance obligations. The responsibility for that error is ours as an organization, and we deeply apologize for the alarm and impact this miscommunication had on our community.

We have updated the link and clarified the text of our policy, which is consistent with that of ACM and IEEE, as well as other international conferences and NeurIPS in the past. As in previous years, NeurIPS welcomes submissions from all compliant institutions and individuals.

We want to reiterate that NeurIPS is a community-driven event, created by and for the community, and strives to be inclusive. The NeurIPS 2026 organizing committee was particularly saddened to learn of this institutional miscommunication. The organizing committee has taken on the responsibility of running the conference this year with the goal of fostering open communication, knowledge sharing, and global scientific discourse.

We thank the community for bringing this issue to our attention and working with us through this situation.

[NeurIPS Conference @NeurIPSConf]

NeurIPS is aware of the community's concerns regarding the list of sanctions. NeurIPS is an inclusive community focused on free scientific discourse. We deeply value the research that comes from everyone in our community.

The present concerns are not about science or academic freedom. They are about legal requirements that apply to the NeurIPS Foundation, which is responsible for complying with sanctions. We are actively consulting legal counsel to fully understand the legal constraints and we will update the NeurIPS community as soon as we have reliable guidance from our lawyers.
