**Affirmed position.** Trust in an Autonomous Agent for Predictive Maintenance: How Agent Transparency Could Impact Compliance presents the following source proposition: Like in human-human cooperation, the effectiveness of cooperation with those autonomous agents especially depends on the notion of trust. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Traditional centralized AI driven supervision of AI agent transactions is deficient because it delivers only limited transparency, is susceptible to bias, and concentrates risk in single points of failure. 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
