AI Washing as an IT Governance Problem: Strategic Ambiguity in Corporate Disclosures and the Consequences of Regulatory Enforcement presents the following source proposition: This gap has acquired a name, AI washing, and it has become the subject of federal enforcement. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Delaware courts have not explicitly imposed a duty to monitor risk, but that omission may be moot: because failing to disclose risk violates federal securities law, unmonitored risk is likely to become undisclosed risk and therefore actionable. 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.
