No, fortunately random hosts on the internet don’t get to write a letter and make something a crime.

Unless they're a big company in which case they can DMCA anything they want, and they get the benefit of the doubt.

Doubt it, a vanilla cease-and-desist letter would probably be the approach there. I doubt any large AI company would pay attention though, since, even if they're in the wrong, they can outspend almost anyone in court.
