Query	Q002
Hypothesis	H3

Statement

No empirical evidence exists documenting measurable harm from AI systems agreeing with users in professional contexts. The concern is theoretical.

Status

Current: Eliminated

Supporting Evidence

Evidence	Summary
None	No evidence supports this hypothesis

Contradicting Evidence

Evidence	Summary
SRC01-E01	Peer-reviewed Science paper with 1,604 participants demonstrating measurable behavioral harm
SRC04-E01	Nature Communications study documenting false confirmation errors in clinical AI
SRC05-E01	Experimental study measuring automation bias in military scenarios with 9,000 respondents

Reasoning

Multiple peer-reviewed empirical studies exist documenting measurable effects. H3 is definitively eliminated.

Relationship to Other Hypotheses

Both H1 and H2 are better supported. The question is whether the evidence is "extensive field-level" (H1) or "primarily experimental" (H2).
