Happy World Ocean Day!
The ocean is the heart of our life support system, without which weâd all be dead. Itâs taken up >90% of the heat from global warming and 30% of our COâ emissions. In return, we give it 11 million tonnes of plastic annually, which animals ingest and also become entangled in.
On a day that many might be headed to the beach, take a moment to consider some of the widespread impacts of all of that plastic, and the ongoing efforts to clean it up.
There are still open spots for the fast track at ProbML 2026, co-located with ICML in Korea. The fast track accepts papers published in other venues relevant to ProbML's focus areas (see above).

The core issue is not whether AI can be useful, but who bears the cost of verifying AI-generated text in peer review.
We have desk-rejected around 30% of submissions, with roughly 60% of these w/o an appeal option.
