- ‘This is going to be hard’: Air Force reverses 135 promotions after grading error on test
The Air Force reversed 135 promotions after discovering a grading error on an advancement exam for security forces personnel. An outdated scoring key caused 135 airmen to be incorrectly promoted and another 135 to be excluded, with over 2,200 exams rescored. Officials acknowledged the mistake as human error, unrelated to AI, and emphasized correcting it to uphold merit-based promotions.
