Update ‼️ We are extending these #FAccT2026 deadlines for craft and tutorial sessions to Friday, March 27!

Reminder ☀️ The deadline for Craft and Tutorial sessions at #FAccT2026 is coming up soon on March 25!

🎨💻 What is a “high-quality” or “aesthetic” image according to generative AI developers?

Happy to share that our investigation of the LAION-Aesthetics Predictor has been accepted at #FAccT2026! 🧵 (1/5)

Take a look at a preprint here: arxiv.org/abs/2601.09896

Our full paper "Human, Algorithm, or Both? Gender Bias in Human-Augmented Recruiting" with @toinebogers.bsky.social has been accepted for publication at ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (ACM FAccT 2026) #FAccT2026.

🚩At @facct.bsky.social, my paper received scores 5, 4 & 1. The meta-review recommended strong reject, adding that revision “might be an impossible task for this author and this paper.”
🤔Critiquing a paper is fair. Questioning an author’s capacity is not. Happy to share for transparency #facct2026

Is there any way for #FAccT2026 authors to contact their AC privately, in case of issues with reviewers? I don't see the usual OpenReview confidential comment option. We could put it in the rebuttal but then the reviewers would also see our complaints, which could then bias their scores.

The deadline for the 2026 FAccT DC is next Tuesday, February 24! If you are a student working on topics relevant to the FAccT's scope, this is an opportunity to interact with a diverse set of peers and mentors! #facct2026 #facct26 #facct
