Ask HN: Did Google's AI run amok?

4 years ago I uploaded an unlisted video on youtube - video of a medical procedure, esophagogastroduodenoscopy. It did not have any views, I was keeping it just in case I need to show it to a doctor. Today I got an e-mail labeling it with adult content and warning about my channel (my other videos were of a Christmas tree and such, all unlisted). I changed video settings from unlisted to private and made it age-restricted - I understand that medicine is not for kids. I appealed since I wanted to help their AI (Remember Facebook's AI labeling a photo of onions for 'sexually suggestive' content?). I've just got another e-mail where they said that I lost my appeal, my videos are not safe and Youtube deleted them all. They said they'll forever label my content as age-restricted. Are we already in an Orwellian Dystopia?
