"AI". Uh, I'm betting rules like that are a simple regex. Like, I was explaining how some bad idea would basically make you kill yourself on Twitter (pre-Musk) and it detected the "kill yourself" phrase and instantly demanded I retract the statement and gave me a week-long mute. However, understanding how they have to be over-cautious about phrases like this for some very good reasons, my reaction was not outrage but lesson learned. These sites rely on swarms of 3rd-world underpaid people to do moderation, and that job is difficult and traumatizing. It involves wading through the worst, vilest, most disgusting content on the internet. For websites that we use for free. Intrinsically anything they can do to automate is sadly necessary. Honestly, I strongly disagree with Musk on a lot, but I think his idea that new Twitter accounts cost a nominal fee to register is a good one just so that it makes accounts not disposable and getting banned has some minimal cost, just so that moderation isn't dealing with such an extremely asymmetrical war.
