# kaal:position:2026-07-31-7161

**Affirmed position.** Governance of AI Agents presents the following source proposition: With AI agents, motivations based on monetary incentives or personal interests no longer apply. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that A DAO realigns the otherwise disparate interests of principals and agents because all participants in the DAO share the same goal, which reduces behavior contrary to the interests of the organization. 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.
