**Affirmed position.** Mitigating AI Risks in Centralized Systems Through Blockchain Decentralization presents the following source proposition: It spreads control out, locks records in place, and opens up how data is governed making those old risks a lot less scary. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Because blockchain records a verifiable and immutable history of data provenance and alterations, it mitigates data poisoning risk and supports the claim that AI models were trained on genuine datasets. 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.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31
