[Library Upgrade] autogluon

[AlexCatarino]

AutoGluon automates machine learning tasks, enabling you to train and deploy high-accuracy machine learning and deep learning models on image, text, time series and tabular data with just a few lines of code. It ships in the dedicated autogluon package environment.

Expected Behavior

The autogluon package environment ships the latest stable AutoGluon release, 1.6.1 (released 2026-08-06).

Actual Behavior

The autogluon package environment still ships AutoGluon 1.5.0 (released 2025-12-19). autogluon, autogluon.common, autogluon.core, autogluon.features, autogluon.multimodal, autogluon.tabular and autogluon.timeseries are all pinned to 1.5.0 (see the Supported Libraries page, autogluon environment).

Potential Solution

Bump the seven autogluon* packages to 1.6.1 in the autogluon package environment.

The upgrade also moves the ray floor, so ray has to be bumped in the same environment:

	AutoGluon 1.5.0	AutoGluon 1.6.1
ray[default] requirement	>=2.43.0,<2.53	>=2.55.0,<2.57

The autogluon environment currently has ray 2.52.1, which is below the 1.6.1 floor. This overlaps with #9222.
