FAGEN@ICML 2026
Workshop on Failure Modes of Agentic AI at ICML 2026
Jul 10 2026COEX Convention & Exhibition Center, Seoul, South KoreaOfficial workshop site Site reachable
FAGEN@ICML 2026 is a workshop focused on failure modes in agentic AI, aiming to move beyond superficial evaluations by studying reproducible triggers, trace-level diagnostics, and verified fixes in long-horizon agent behaviors. It brings together researchers to define failures precisely, develop diagnostic tools, and propose interventions with transparent trade-offs in latency, capability, or generalization.

Policies worth checking twice
- This is a non-archival venue. Authors retain rights and can publish their work elsewhere.
- Dual submission is allowed.
- Well-documented negative results are in scope when the analysis is careful and the lesson transfers.
