I think so, the point of the Golden Buzzer was for a judge to send an act to the next round even if two judges voted no. Then I guess Simon discovered he could use it to create viral videos and then the judges began using it on acts that would've gone through just fine. iirc the Golden Buzzer was first used on BGT, where it sent acts through to the live shows like it does now. Idk why it was different on AGT at first.
