A clarification on the timeframe for rebuttals and author discussion, for all three tracks at NeurIPS 2026.
Rebuttals can be posted until August 3rd AOE. This includes any back and forth with the reviewers. The "rebuttal" button and "official comment" button will both be treated equivalently - the difference in terminology between the two is to facilitate discussion during the discussion period on OpenReview. This also means you are allowed to post several comments, with a total of over 10000 words.
Please post your answers to the Area Chair's initial-meta reviews via a comment from July 28th and by August 3rd, so that reviewers can see it too.
We emphasize that the entire period from July 27 through August 3 AOE is time for authors to respond to reviews, including with additional results or other responses to reviewers as applicable. It is your choice how you wish to divide this time into initial rebuttals and subsequent discussion with reviewers and ACs.
OpenReview Update: Due to a technical issue during release, we are currently re-releasing all reviews and initial meta-reviews, which we expect will take about 4 hours. Reviews will be temporarily unavailable during that time. Thank you all for your patience while we get all the reviews online!

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
