内容总结:

美国国土安全部近日披露,其下属移民与海关执法局(ICE)已引入人工智能技术处理公众举报信息。根据该部门1月29日发布的《2025年度人工智能应用清单》,ICE自去年5月起启用由帕兰泰尔公司开发的“AI增强举报处理系统”,通过生成式人工智能对公众提交的移民执法线索进行归类、翻译与摘要。

该系统可自动生成名为“BLUF”(核心结论前置)的线索摘要,并支持多语言翻译,旨在帮助调查人员快速识别紧急案件。清单显示,该系统基于商用大语言模型构建,未使用ICE内部数据进行额外训练,仅调用模型的基础能力处理举报内容。

此次披露首次证实帕兰泰尔与ICE在举报处理领域的合作。该公司自2011年起成为ICE主要承包商,其开发的“调查案件管理系统”于2025年9月完成升级,新增“举报与调查线索套件”功能。此次上线的AI处理工具可能是对2012年启用的“FALCON举报热线”系统的技术升级。

清单同时提及另一款帕兰泰尔开发的“增强执法线索识别与定位系统”(ELITE)。该系统通过整合卫生与公众服务部等机构数据,生成潜在遣返对象的地理位置图谱,已于去年6月在俄勒冈州投入应用。ICE强调该工具“不作为执法决策的主要依据”。

近期ICE多次通过社交媒体呼吁公众提交可疑活动线索,称“帮助ICE官员让社区更安全”。帕兰泰尔公司内部文件显示,其技术高管曾于今年1月回应员工质询,辩称公司服务能“提升ICE行动效能”,但承认参与移民执法工作可能带来声誉风险。

目前ICE与帕兰泰尔均未对相关报道置评。国土安全部自2022年起每年定期发布人工智能应用清单,2024年版本中尚未出现AI处理举报线索的相关记录。

美国移民与海关执法局正利用帕兰提尔公司的生成式人工智能工具,对其公众提交表格中的移民执法线索进行归类与总结。这一信息来自国土安全部周三发布的《2025年度人工智能应用案例清单》。该清单显示,国土安全部下属机构在2025年共部署了多项人工智能技术应用。

根据清单说明,"人工智能增强型ICE线索处理服务"旨在帮助移民与海关执法局的调查人员"更快速识别并处理紧急案件线索",同时翻译非英语提交的线索内容。该服务还提供"BLUF"(前线要报)——即"线索的高级摘要",该摘要通过至少一个大型语言模型生成。BLUF是"前线要报"的英文缩写,原为军事术语,亦在帕兰提尔公司内部使用。

国土安全部表示,该软件"正积极获准投入使用"以支持移民与海关执法局的行动,并强调该工具有助于减少"人工审查归类线索所需的耗时操作"。清单显示,这项人工智能增强型线索处理系统于2025年5月2日正式投入运行。

国土安全部的清单未详细说明帕兰提尔公司用于生成"前线要报"的大型语言模型具体信息,但指出移民与海关执法局使用的是"商业可用的大型语言模型",这些模型"由供应商使用公共领域数据进行训练"。清单特别注明:"在模型基础能力集之外,未使用机构数据进行额外训练。系统运行期间,人工智能模型直接处理提交的线索内容。"

这份《2025年度国土安全部人工智能应用案例清单》于周三在国土安全部官网发布,该部门自2022年起每年公布此类清单。值得注意的是,2024年版本的清单中并未提及使用人工智能处理举报线索。

帕兰提尔公司自2011年起成为移民与海关执法局的主要承包商,为其提供全面的分析工具套件。但迄今为止,外界对帕兰提尔为移民与海关执法局处理线索的具体工作几乎一无所知。

这项工作的相关信息曾出现在2025年9月移民与海关执法局向帕兰提尔支付196万美元款项的描述中。该笔款项用于升级"调查案件管理系统"——该系统基于帕兰提尔现成的执法产品"哥谭平台"开发,用于存储移民与海关执法局当前及历史调查信息——新增"举报线索与调查引导套件"功能。但该描述未透露帕兰提尔在此次"举报热线"整合工作中的其他细节。

不过,"人工智能增强型ICE线索处理"工具可能是"猎鹰举报热线"的升级版本。原"猎鹰举报热线"于2012年左右取代了移民与海关执法局早期的线索处理系统。

截至发稿,帕兰提尔公司、移民与海关执法局及国土安全部均未立即回应置评请求。

根据国土安全部2021年更新的文件显示,"猎鹰举报热线"负责处理公众或执法机构向移民与海关执法局国土安全调查处举报热线部门提交的"涉嫌非法活动"或"可疑活动"线索。移民与海关执法局似乎仅设有一条举报热线,但支持在线提交与电话举报两种方式。

2025年12月的联邦登记记录显示,当国土安全调查处收到线索后,其举报热线部门的调查人员会在"国土安全部、执法部门及移民数据库"中进行交叉检索。分析检索结果后,调查人员将撰写"调查报告"并将线索转交国土安全部内相应办公室。目前尚不清楚这套工作流程中有多少环节得到了新启用的人工智能增强处理的辅助。

"猎鹰举报热线"、帕兰提尔的调查案件管理系统及其他多个数据库的数据,均由帕兰提尔公司另一款独立开发但名称相似的"猎鹰搜索分析系统"进行整合处理并实现可检索功能。

上周六联邦探员在明尼阿波利斯击毙护士亚历克斯·普雷蒂后,帕兰提尔员工向管理层施压,要求说明公司与移民与海关执法局的合作情况。《连线》周刊本周查阅的内部Slack消息显示,员工质疑公司"能否向移民与海关执法局施加任何压力"。有员工写道:"我们在特朗普第二任期期间与移民与海关执法局的合作被内部掩盖得太多了,我们需要了解公司在此事中的参与程度。"

面对压力,管理层更新了帕兰提尔内部维基页面,详细说明了公司与移民与海关执法局的持续合作。在1月24日的帖子中,领英资料显示担任帕兰提尔美国政府业务首席技术官兼总裁的阿卡什·贾恩为公司行为辩护,称帕兰提尔的服务提升了"移民与海关执法局的行动效能"。

维基页面写道:"针对境内移民执法行动的实地操作日益增多且愈发引人注目,这持续引发外界对帕兰提尔参与移民与海关执法局事务的关注。我们相信,通过为执法人员提供数据以做出更精准、明智的决策,我们的工作能对移民与海关执法局的执法行动产生切实积极的影响。我们致力于为合作伙伴提供最优质的执法软件,同时也承认支持移民执法行动所面临的名誉风险。"

更新后的维基页面将帕兰提尔与移民与海关执法局的合作归纳为三大重点领域:"执法行动优先级与目标锁定"、"自愿离境追踪"以及"聚焦后勤规划与执行的移民生活方式行动",但未提及使用人工智能协助移民执法人员筛选潜在线索。

移民与海关执法局周三发布的清单还提及另一款帕兰提尔开发的工具——"执法强化引导识别与目标锁定系统"。该工具由404媒体本月早些时候首次报道,能生成标注潜在遣返目标的地图并为每个目标创建信息档案。该系统通过从卫生与公众服务部调取数据来定位目标地址。清单显示该工具于6月投入运行,404媒体报道称其已在俄勒冈州投入使用。

清单中说明:"虽然该系统为执法与遣返行动官员提供可操作数据,但其输出仅限于标准化地址数据,不作为对个人产生法律、实质、约束性或重大影响的决策或行动的主要依据。人工智能模型在设计、开发及训练阶段均未使用移民与海关执法局数据。系统运行期间,人工智能模型会处理来自多源的移民与海关执法局生产数据,包括移民与海关执法局执法综合数据库的数据。"

过去一年间,移民与海关执法局与白宫多次推广该机构的网络举报表格,呼吁公众(不仅是执法部门)提交潜在线索。移民与海关执法局今年2月在X平台发文称:"举报可疑活动,协助移民与海关执法局官员让您的社区更安全。"

United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement is leveraging Palantir’s generative artificial intelligence tools to sort and summarize immigration enforcement tips from its public submission form, according to an inventory released Wednesday of all use cases the Department of Homeland Security had for AI in 2025.
The AI Enhanced ICE Tip Processing service is intended to help ICE investigators “to more quickly identify and action tips” for urgent cases, as well as translate submissions not made in English, according to the inventory. It also provides a “BLUF,” defined as a “high-level summary of the tip,” produced using at least one large language model. BLUF, or “bottom line up front,” is a military term that’s also used internally by some Palantir employees.
DHS says that the software is “being actively authorized” in support of ICE operations, adding that the tool helps reduce the “time-consuming manual effort required to review and categorize incoming tips.” The date when the AI-enhanced tip processing “became operational” is listed in the inventory as May 2, 2025.
The DHS inventory does not provide many details about the large language models Palantir uses to generate the BLUFs; however, it does note that ICE uses “commercially available large language models” that were “trained on the public domain data by their providers.”
"There was no additional training using agency data on top of what is available in the models’ base set of capabilities,” the inventory also notes. “During operation, the AI models interact with tip submissions."
The “2025 DHS AI Use Case Inventory,” published Wednesday on DHS’s website, has been published for every year since 2022. The 2024 version of the inventory does not mention using AI to process tip line submissions.
Palantir has been a major ICE contractor since 2011, and it provides a sweeping set of analytical tools for the agency. Until now, however, almost nothing has been known about Palantir’s work processing tips for ICE.
This work was mentioned once in the description of a $1.96 million Palantir payment that ICE made in September 2025. The payment was to modify the Investigative Case Management System (ICM)—a version of Palantir’s off-the-shelf law enforcement product, Gotham, which stores information about current or former ICE investigations—to include the “Tipline and Investigative Leads Suite.”
The description includes no other details about Palantir’s work on this “Tipline” integration.
However, the “AI Enhanced ICE Tip Processing” tool may be an update to the “FALCON Tipline,” which replaced ICE’s previous tip-processing system around 2012.
Palantir, ICE, and DHS did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
According to a DHS document last updated in 2021, the FALCON Tipline processes tips submitted by the public or law enforcement agencies about “suspected illegal activity” or “suspicious activity” to ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Tipline Unit. ICE appears to have only one tip line, but submissions can be made online or over the phone.
An entry to a federal register in December 2025 notes that when HSI receives a tip, investigators within its Tipline Unit conduct “queries” across various “DHS, law enforcement, and immigration databases.” After analyzing these results, HSI agents write “investigative reports” and then refer tips to the appropriate offices within DHS. It’s unclear exactly how much of this workflow may be assisted by the newly AI-enhanced processing.
Data from the FALCON Tipline, Palantir’s ICM, and several other databases are ingested and made searchable by the FALCON Search & Analysis System, a separate but similarly named tool also developed by Palantir.
After federal agents shot and killed Minneapolis nurse Alex Pretti on Saturday, Palantir workers pressed leadership for answers on the company’s work with ICE. In Slack messages, reviewed by WIRED this week, workers asked whether Palantir could “put any pressure on ICE at all.” One worker wrote, “Our involvement with ice has been internally swept under the rug under Trump2 too much. We need an understanding of our involvement here.”
Got a Tip?
Are you a current or former Palantir or government worker who wants to talk about immigration enforcement? We'd like to hear from you. Using a nonwork phone or computer, contact the reporters securely on Signal at carolinehaskins.61 or makenakelly.32

Responding to this pressure, leadership updated Palantir’s internal wiki detailing its ongoing work with ICE. In a post from January 24, Akash Jain, whose LinkedIn profile lists him as chief technology officer and president of Palantir USG, defended the company’s work with ICE, writing that Palantir’s services improve “ICE’s operational effectiveness.”
“There have been increasing, and increasingly visible, field operations focused on interior immigration enforcement that continue to attract attention to Palantir’s involvement with ICE,” the wiki says. “We believe that our work could have a real and positive impact on ICE enforcement operations by providing officers and agents with the data to make more precise, informed decisions. We are committed to giving our partners the best software for the job, while acknowledging the reputational risk we face when supporting immigration enforcement operations.”
The updated wiki describes Palantir’s work with ICE as focusing on three major areas: “Enforcement Operations Prioritization and Targeting,” “Self-Deportation Tracking,” and “Immigration Lifestyle Operations focused on logistics planning and execution.” But it does not mention any use of AI to help immigration enforcement officials sort through potential tips.
The inventory released by ICE on Wednesday also references another Palantir-developed tool called Enhanced Leads Identification & Targeting for Enforcement (ELITE) which was first reported by 404 Media earlier this month. ELITE creates maps outlining potential deportation targets and presents information dossiers on each person. The tool pulls data from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to identify addresses for potential targets. The tool became operational in June, according to the inventory, and 404 Media reports that it has been used in Oregon.
“While ELITE provides actionable data to ERO (Enforcement and Removal Operations) officers, its outputs are limited to normalized address data and do not serve as a principal basis for decisions or actions with legal, material, binding, or significant effects on individuals,” the inventory reads. “ICE data was not used during the design, development, or training phases of the AI models. During operation, the AI models interact with ICE production data from multiple sources, including data from ICE’s Enforcement Integrated Database (EID).”
ICE and the White House have repeatedly linked out to the agency’s webform for tips over the past year, calling on the public—not just law enforcement—to submit possible leads. “Help ICE officers make your community safer by reporting suspicious activity,” said one ICE post on X from February.
