I also feel bad for these famous researchers... Giving multiple talks in the span of a few days is a lot of work!
This of course has to be coordinated by workshop chairs, and I acknowledge it's not an easy solution. Usually workshop applications include the keynotes, so maybe chairs could facilitate coordination across workshops to avoid this, and encourage a bit more diversity.
I wish there were a way to increase diversity in workshop keynotes/panelists. There are a few famous researchers who end up being keynotes/panelists on multiple workshops, which means lots of other great researchers are not getting those opportunities.
Come by!
Those famous researchers are of course incredible, which is why they're famous, and I always learn from their talks. But I think having them on just one workshop (as opposed to multiple) would still be great and allow for other, less famous but still great, researchers to opine.
I will be giving a talk about this work at the "From Human Cognition to AI Reasoning: Models, Methods, and Applications" #ICLR2026 workshop
