Ethical AI and Corporate Governance: Exploring the Social Implications of AI-Driven Decision-Making in Business presents the following source proposition: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly transforming organisational decision-making processes across finance, human resource management, marketing, risk assessment, and strategic planning. 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 a qualification: 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.
