# kaal:position:2026-07-31-5780

**Affirmed position.** DAO governance proposal data presents the following source proposition: The unit of observation is an individual governance proposal, for proposals submitted between July 2022 and December 2024 This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Routing proposals through the Forum and then through Validation Pool review is what allows the input parameters and learning data of AI systems to be governed by expert community consensus, because only vetted and consensus backed data and parameters reach AI development. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
