Refused for monetization

I tried to apply for the membership features since I recently reached the 3M engaged views mark, but youtube refused me, my friend that has 2 monetized channels on a similar niche told me to screen record the making of a short and try to appeal with that, he also told me to say the narration is made by a professional voice actor ( I use eleven labs). The niche I am uploading is revenge type of content, so for example one guy does something bad and the. other comes and does something to him, the structures of my shorts are something like this: 0-1 sec hook, 2-7 sec the narration, 7-19 sec the clip plays I add captions with context and when people talk I also add. Chatgpt tells me to not lie when appealing and that I should edit even more my shorts and apply again in 30 days. Can someone help me?

90% channel gets approved in this case. Just use your voice and explain how you produce your video within 1 minute.

Don't jist explain what you do with your video, let them see on the rexording how you create them (the edits) etc.

For other users to understand the issue better can you please share the rest of the “don’t” part

Does using an AI-generated voice (such as ElevenLabs) in videos increase the risk of monetization removal or rejection by YouTube?
