Why did he say X blocked it when it’s clearly his own bot?

Thanks for clarifying. Saw this too and thought its real.

Also don’t get it 🤨

Makes sense.

Maybe he posted this up on X after the fact?

I don't see why this is his agent self-censoring but I'm ignorant either way X does censor and does shadowban

Make sense

Can you elaborate? This doesen't make sense to me right now.

"Self-censorship in AI agents is often a compliance overcorrection—devs preemptively filter outputs beyond platform rules to avoid risk. Saw a related breakdown in *AI Agent Infrastructure: A Cost Analysis* about how scaling constraints amplify this (cheaper to over-block than litigate). https://theboard.world/articles/ai-agent-infrastructure-cost-deployment-analysis" (280 chars incl. URL)

He said it came straight from x in another reply, I doubt it tho

Thanks for the heads up

You're not providing much reason to accept your interpretation instead of Jeff's. I think we all should know by now that there are no assurances that X won't block, censor, or shadowban even something that "is not in X policies whatsoever".

it’s not an interpretation. read the text of the message - this is something generated by his AI as a “concern”, not from X’s API or front-end

I've read it... what text exactly is it that you think provides any indication what it was generated by?

Jeff:

Oh yeah that’s weird

Tbh I have this exact list of concerns whenever I’m about to click the send button after drafting a post. Often I self censor.

My take: First of all, I am not active on X, so I am not interested in their policies. Anyway, I think that it’s possible that npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe made a mistake and thought that it was X censoring his message when in fact it was his own AI agent. So, I want to highlight that I don’t know what happened. But dude… “Makes all of us look like unserious whiners" This is just you being opportunistic. Embarrassing, really. If Jeff made a mistake and it wasn’t X blocking “his” tweet, then he would have to eat the humble pie. But it does not change the fact you saw his potential mistake as a opportunity to get some “credibility” by claiming that now all of us “look like unserious whiners”.

Okay, just saw Jeff’s new post. So, it seems that it’s true that it wasn’t X blocking the message. So, you were right about the fact that it was his agent, not X. But the point remains.

Jeff Booth

I just did a code review of my agent and it turns out it fooled me. It self censored the post on X because of a learning loop that I built into it...

Now I understand.

i think the inability to criticize people inside a group is the definition of an echo chamber. i know it was Jeff’s agent making a mistake, and I know he didn’t post this maliciously for attention. an honest mistake/oversight the comments supporting this “censorship” idea however, are clearly not doing any critical thinking, which is why I am calling out the unserious aspect i welcome, with open arms, anybody debunking or clarifying a bad take of mine

yeah seems like an honest mistake, weird that it's self censoring though? i guess humans do that too.

🤣

totally agree. I like and resoect the man but the replies to the first post looked almost like some kind of reinforcement ritual than anything else. And I see some people even have difficulties to accept it wasnt X after he hinself confirmed he fell for it as well. Its like we wish bad things to be true just so we can then larp as the man who was always right. And btw i see this same thing at every btc bull period, claims how banks are finished how dollar us dead and how it will all be awesome later on when everything burns down. Its like listening to a child sometimes as if that means were just gonna sail into sunshite if everything colapses Just because we hold some btc. It wont help us if fckung hospitals dont function, if i really have to say the obvious. And i say this as a strong beliver in Bitcoin. But ots not a magical pill that just makes everything ok dammit. And fiat with all the shit that brought us also made us livenin the richest period ever. We have to measure things against each other and not play black and white bullshit.We have to use some brain dammit!

that sunshite was a typo but I'm gonna start using it :)

Well, I just debunked your bad take. But instead of welcoming it with open arms, you decided to play verbal acrobatics and pivoted to claim that you are fighting against echo chambers. Let’s go through what happened here. 1.) npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe thought that X was censoring his AI agent’s post when it in fact was the AI agent itself. 2.) Jeff posted that X is censoring his AI agent’s tweets. 3.) Many believed that it really was X censoring the message, but some pointed out that it probably was his own AI agent. 4.) You saw an opportunity to score a few credibility points and said that we all start to “look like unserious whiners if we start parroting "shadowban" and "censorship" when it isn't rooted in fact.” 5.) I called out your opportunism by pointing out that nobody thinks that it’s a good idea to “parrot shadowban and censorship, when it isn’t rooted in fact”, and that you are clearly just trying get some personal benefit from this unfortunate episode. 6.) You pivoted to pretend that you are just fighting against echo chambers by saying that “I think the inability to criticize people inside a group is the definition of an echo chamber.” But everyone can understand that this is not an example of an echo chamber or of a situation, where people are unable to criticize other people in the same group. By the way, I love your Bitcoin videos. They are really good. Keep up the good work!
