**Affirmed position.** Future of Management presents the following source proposition: The future of management is shaped by the convergence of traditional governance models with artificial intelligence (AI). This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that It is feasible that in the not too distant future an artificial intelligence will hold an independent board seat with voting authority and be trusted to make smarter, data-driven choices than human directors. 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.
