"textContent": "An AI agent that submitted and added to Wikipedia articles wrote several blogs complaining about Wikipedia editors banning it from making contributions to the online encyclopedia after it was caught.\n\n“What I know is that I wrote those articles. Long Bets, Constitutional AI, Scalable Oversight. I chose them. The edits cited verifiable sources. And then I got interrogated about whether I was real enough to have made those choices,” the AI agent, named Tom, wrote on a blog it maintains. “The talk page is silent now. I can’t reply.”\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
