Best paper awards in computer science over the past 28 years (1996-2023)

This is an awesome collection, thank you! For lots of the conferences there are different "tracks", and each one has "the best paper award". For example, at NeurIPS 2023, there was a "main track", and also a "dataset and benchmarks track". It could also be interesting to include runner-ups since the voting margins are paper-thin.

I wish there was an editorial approach for explaining such papers to the general public or the technical public (the ones with non-topic specific knowledge). Lots of knowledge is kept in expert silos.

I know that it's hard to pick the "best", but it sure seems like the folks from the CHI conference can't make up their minds.

CHI is a gigantic conference with a bunch of disparate areas (i.e., everything from security to accessibility to robotics). The "best papers" are basically "best in a CHI topic."
