In WFME standards, concepts are regarded as milestones of quality assurance and improvement; accordingly, the study was designed in three phases. In the first phase, a nationwide expert panel utilized structured focus group discussions as the primary consensus mechanism to extract and rank significant concepts. In the second phase, conducted during a dedicated workshop at the WFME International Conference in Thailand, a formal survey was administered to 50 international participants to rank the concepts and gather qualitative justifications. In the third phase&amp;mdash;which is the focus of this paper&amp;mdash;results from the two previous rounds were employed using Generative Text-driven AI (Perplexity) to formulate cogent arguments based on the principles of reasoning. Utilizing an expertise-oriented evaluation approach, three structured arguments were designed based on the authors&amp;rsquo; experiences. The dialogue examined the relative importance of key WFME concepts, the primacy of governance as the mechanism underpinning mission and values, and the intertwinement of governance and social accountability through a &amp;ldquo;domino&amp;rdquo; metaphor. The AI&amp;rsquo;s responses demonstrated that argumentation-based prompting can guide coherent reasoning without direct citation support, highlighting governance as a foundational construct influencing mission alignment, accountability mechanisms, and contextual adaptation. Furthermore, the analysis contrasted top-down governance models with bottom-up approaches more applicable to developing contexts. Findings suggest that text-driven AI can function as a reflective partner in standards interpretation, provided that arguments are linguistically precise and grounded in expertise.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
