There appears to be a misintrepetation.

I want like last season to be a Top 48. The 4 Golden Buzzer acts during the auditions automatically skip a round and go straight to the live show, making the first 4 acts of the Top 48. Then after everyone's audition verdicts but before we start on Judgment Week, we must mutually agree on 4 other acts (either from the list of acts that actually did advance through without performing in reality or like we did last year and just pick 4) to advance. This makes 8 in total when all is said and done and we pick 40 out of the Top 80 who advance to make up the rest of the members of the Top 48.

So no picking 8 acts, but rather 4.
