TAIPEI<\/span><\/span>, Sept. 3, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Acer founder Stan Shih<\/span>, at the age of 81, has stepped into the world of AI. On September 3<\/span>, he released a new eBook sharing his AI journey and introduced his WD (Wangdao) Thinking AI Agent Plus on GPT\u2014A-Dan Global<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Shih emphasized that AI will reshape everyone’s lives, and through it, he is bringing the Oriental philosophy of WD (Wangdao)\u2014creating value and balancing interests\u2014to the world stage.<\/p>\n

Shih released his English eBook “The Leader’s Awakening Moment: Stan’s Dialogue with AI.”<\/b> 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.<\/p>\n

Shih noted that the development of A-Dan<\/b> is guided by HEART Modeling (<\/b>Humanity, Ethics, Altruism, Responsibility, and Trust). This positions A-Dan not merely as an AI assistant but as AI with a Heart<\/b>, embedding WD values into practical decision-making.<\/p>\n

Promoting the popularization and internationalization of WD has long been Shih’s mission. To this end, he has built A-Dan Global<\/b>, 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.<\/p>\n

After repeated testing and optimization, A-Dan Global<\/b> 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.<\/p>\n

Currently released as version 0.8 Beta<\/b>, A-Dan Global is scheduled to be upgraded to version 1.0 on January 1, 2026<\/span>. 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.<\/p>\n

Stan founded Acer in 1976, introduced the Smiling Curve<\/b> in 1992, and retired in 2004. In 2011, Stan distilled his decades of management experience into the concept of Wangdao Leadership<\/b>. Companies founded by him embody WD culture as their legacy framework. Today, the AAQW Business Family (Acer, AUO, Qisda, Wistron)<\/b> has an annual revenue of about USD 70 billion<\/span>, with 40 publicly listed companies worldwide.<\/p>\n
