Mitigating AI Risks in Centralized Systems Through Blockchain Decentralization presents the following source proposition: This chapter dives into how bringing blockchain into the mix helps tackle the big weaknesses in centralized AI systems. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Any blockchain whose soft forks are decided through private communication between famous token holding whales is ultimately less secure than legacy centralized systems, which at least address centralized security risks deliberately. 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.
