Humor and Artificial Intelligence Panel
=======================================

36th International Society for Humor Studies Conference (ISHS 2026)

Niterói, Brazil, July 6 to 10, 2026
https://ishs2026.org/

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE: MARCH 24, 2026


Call for papers
---------------

As in previous years, the Humor and AI Special Interest Group 
<https://humorstudies.org/Forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=9> of the 
International Society for Humor Studies will hold a panel at the 36th 
International Society for Humor Studies Conference (ISHS 2026).  ISHS is 
a multidisciplinary conference organized and attended by humor 
researchers in diverse fields, including linguistics, psychology, 
sociology, computer science, folklore, literary studies, and many others.

We invite paper presentations on AI-based technology for generating, 
processing, or analyzing humor.  Contributions should be grounded in 
humor theory or other relevant theoretical frameworks, demonstrating how 
theory informs the design, analysis, or application of AI methods. 
(Submissions that focus solely on AI tools without clear theoretical 
motivation or connection to humor research are outside the scope of this 
call.)  Application areas include, but are not limited to:

* human–computer interaction
* computer-mediated communication
* intelligent writing assistants
* conversational agents
* machine and computer-assisted translation
* digital humanities
* natural language processing
* computer vision


Submission instructions
-----------------------

Per ISHS 2026 policy, each (co-)author of the submission must separately 
register beforehand for the conference using the form at 
<https://www.ishs2026.eventos.dype.com.br/>.  Because the submission is 
for a pre-organized panel, co-authors should answer "No" to the question 
"Do you wish to send a proposal/work in your registration?"  Payment of 
the conference fee is not required at submission time, but will be 
required of _all_ co-authors of submissions accepted for presentation.

The corresponding (co-)author should then e-mail the following 
information to the panel organizers at ishs-ai@groups.io:

1. Title

2. 250-word abstract

3. 3 keywords

4. Name, short biography, and conference registration code for each 
(co-)author
