**Affirmed position.** EU AI Act and the Rights-Based Approach to Technological Governance presents the following source proposition: The Act places fundamental rights at the heart of a risk-based governance framework. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that The EU AI Act classifies AI applications used in judicial proceedings as high risk because of their potential to affect fundamental rights such as due process and non-discrimination, and therefore subjects them to mandatory transparency, bias audits, and human oversight. 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.

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