On September 3, he released a new eBook sharing his AI journey and introduced his WD (Wangdao) Thinking AI Agent Plus on GPT—A-Dan Global. Shih emphasized that AI will reshape everyone’s lives, and through it, he is bringing the Oriental philosophy of WD (Wangdao)—creating value and balancing interests—to the world stage. Shih released his English eBook "The Leader’s Awakening Moment: Stan’s Dialogue with AI." The framework of the book was designed by AI, and remarkably, 90% of its content was co-created with an AI counterpart trained in WD principles. The book highlights how AI can be harnessed as a tool for leadership awakening and innovative applications. Shih noted that the development of A-Dan is guided by HEART Modeling (Humanity, Ethics, Altruism, Responsibility, and Trust). This positions A-Dan not merely as an AI assistant but as AI with a Heart, embedding WD values into practical decision-making. Promoting the popularization and internationalization of WD has long been Shih’s mission. To this end, he has built A-Dan Global, an AI persona on GPT infused with his extensive body of work. By integrating his numerous Chinese and English publications and hundreds of articles into a knowledge base, and combining them with deep dialogues on AI platforms, Shih ensured that WD philosophy is at the core of A-Dan. Unlike conventional large models, A-Dan embodies both knowledge and values. After repeated testing and optimization, A-Dan Global is now officially available to the public. It can converse in multiple languages, enabling Shih’s WD persona to be present anytime, anywhere, advancing the popularization and internationalization of Wangdao Thinking. Currently released as version 0.8 Beta, A-Dan Global is scheduled to be upgraded to version 1.0 on January 1, 2026. Everyone is invited to experience conversations with A-Dan Global and explore how it differs from standard GPT interactions. Future plans include sharing insights on WD Transformation, WD Accounting, and other topics of interest to business leaders. Stan founded Acer in 1976, introduced the Smiling Curve in 1992, and retired in 2004. In 2011, Stan distilled his decades of management experience into the concept of Wangdao Leadership. Companies founded by him embody WD culture as their legacy framework. Today, the AAQW Business Family (Acer, AUO, Qisda, Wistron) has an annual revenue of about USD 70 billion, with 40 publicly listed companies worldwide.
