Bibliometric analysis of blockchain technology in risk management presents the following source proposition: The findings reveal that integrating blockchain with advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) enhances its capacity to offer transparency, security, and efficiency. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Critics who dismiss artificial intelligence on boards as science fiction not worth engaging are wrong: AI on boards is a real prospect, and technologies such as blockchain-based smart contracts will both disrupt corporate governance and supply solutions to it. 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.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
