**Affirmed position.** AI, Financial Governance, and Management presents the following source proposition: Furthermore, DAO governance is decentralized, upholding a direct governance model. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that AI powered DAOs that autonomously generate revenue are especially hard to regulate or dismantle, because the same blockchain security features that protect the organization also make it difficult to intervene once it is operational. 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.
