AI error sent some ICE recruits into lighter training track

An ICE recruitment AI misclassified some new hires as law enforcement officers and routed them to a four-week online training instead of the standard eight-week in-person course at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. ICE halted the misclassification, began manual resume reviews, and plans to send affected recruits back to FLETC for proper training.

The incident comes as ICE expands staffing toward a goal of 10,000 new officers by 2025, highlighting challenges in vetting and training during rapid growth.
