Call for participation: SemEval-2026 Task 13: Detecting Machine-Generated Code We announce an exciting and challenging new SemEval task! With the rapid growth of large language models for code generation, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between code written by humans and code produced by AI systems. This raises serious concerns for academic integrity, hiring evaluations, and software security. To address this, we are introducing SemEval-2026 Task 13: Detecting Machin
