This paper aims to interpret the international communication under the Daoist philosophy, particularly the image of water in Daodejing, with a mathematical analysis and reformation thanks to the use of artificial intelligence (AI). The study holds that Daoist thoughts like “Dao keeping as it is” and “non-coercive action” offer a theoretical framework for harmonious global interaction. It argues that AI, as a transformative tool, can be a helping hand in revealing water’s adaptability and ethical neutrality, while mathematical abstraction can model systemic balance in communication. This essay focuses on the water’s virtues, truthfulness, goodness, and beauty, which can be employed as effective international communication, advocating for audience-centered, flexible approaches that prioritize authenticity over coercion. By linking ancient Chinese philosophy with modern science and technology, the article puts forward a “water-like” communication model stressing on inclusivity, resilience, and sustainable global cooperation, challenging the traditional power-driven styles.
