Excited to share that 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟱𝘁𝗵 @DL4Code 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 #ICML2026🇰🇷. Grateful to everyone who helped make this such an energizing space for the field! Also, a belated update on our position paper 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗔𝗜 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵. What I’m especially proud of in the paper is the core argument: the next frontier for coding agents is not just more autonomy, but better human collaboration. As agents get stronger, the real bottleneck is increasingly whether people can align with them, steer them, verify their outputs, and trust them in real workflows. We turn that observation into concrete research agenda for building coding agents that are genuinely more useful. The seed for this paper came from an early conversation with the awesome @KLieret at #NeurIPS. I later discussed the idea with @jyangballin, which led to further conversations with @ZhiruoW @Diyi_Yang, and the final paper was led by these folks together with a fantastic group of co-authors. Parts of the argument were also shaped by wonderful discussions at the #DL4C workshops at #ICLR and #NeurIPS last year. Check it out! zorazrw.github.io/files/position…

Often, a bug I have had to fix has been tied directly to overly verbose or defensive code from an AI agent that has eroded my project as the specs changed. Why isn't there an eval for this? There is now. Very excited to announce SlopCodeBench scbench.ai

Invited Talk #2: Sida Wang @sidawxyz (Meta FAIR), “Predicting all the error bars of LLM evaluations”
