AI why? Where’s the proof that AI was involved in this?

"A popular tech YouTuber with over 350,000 subscribers has lost his channel after YouTube’s automated systems flagged him for an alleged connection to a completely unrelated Japanese channel that received copyright strikes."

That's not necessarily AI.

That could be as simple as a database lookup against flagged accounts or a simple heuristic score.

We're over-AI-ing everything.

Or under AIing.

It's automated. It's based on information. Why is it not intelligent. Why is it demonstrably less intelligent than an LLM which may make no attempt to retrieve information from other sources but merely has what it was created with.
