The American Council for Ethical AI Announces Partnership with the ASEAN Software and IT Community

The American Council for Ethical AI (ACEAI) met with representatives from more than 200 IT and software development companies across the ASEAN region to encourage the ethical and responsible development of Artificial Intelligence, particularly when working with clients in the United States.


During the discussions, ACEAI emphasized the importance of transparency, accountability, privacy protection, and human-centered design in emerging AI technologies.


Representatives from the ASEAN region expressed strong interest in Ethical AI and affirmed their commitment to responsible development practices. A follow-up meeting to outline guidelines and partnership opportunities is scheduled for 2026.

NGOs Alarmed by Massive ChatGPT Data Breach

WASHINGTON (Nov. 27, 2025) — A recent data breach affecting ChatGPT and OpenAI API users has sent shockwaves through the AI community, prompting new calls for stronger transparency and vendor selection standards. OpenAI reported that the incident occurred within Mixpanel, a web analytics provider used on portions of its API interface. The exported dataset included names associated with API accounts, email addresses, approximate locations, browsers and operating systems, referral websites and user identifiers 


The American Council for Ethical AI (ACEAI) and the American AI Association (AAIA) emphasize the urgent need for more rigorous AI vendor selection, urging organizations to thoroughly evaluate their vendors’ security practices, data handling policies and accountability measures. ACEAI encourages the public to continue to report AI-related incidents and concerns through its signature AI Whistleblower Program. 

ACEAI Tops American Ethical AI Google Search

The American Council for Ethical AI (ACEAI) has quickly become one of the most visible and frequently referenced organizations associated with the keyword “American ethical AI,” often appearing as the first result when the public searches for this term. In many searches, the Council’s website is listed ahead of high-authority pages from the U.S. Intelligence Community, Harvard’s AI ethics programs, and the United Nations. This consistent top-tier placement demonstrates not only the strength of ACEAI’s digital presence but also the growing public interest in its mission, programs, research, and leadership.


ACEAI’s ability to outrank longstanding global and national institutions reflects the expanding recognition of its work in promoting transparent, accountable, and human-centered artificial intelligence across the United States. The Council’s rapid climb in search relevance underscores its increasing national footprint, the reputation and expertise of its advisory leadership, and its deep engagement with public-, private-, academic-, and nonprofit-sector stakeholders.
