How did you manage to use AI during an exam? With a coursework-based unit I could understand it; was there no supervision / invigilation during the exam?!

I think they'll be looking out for a variety of ways you can cheat during an exam, but I'd be surprised if they'd even be looking for AI-based cheating, given that you should have no access to AI during an exam.

For unit 2 they can take in two pages of notes. The examiners will be looking for any plagiarism issues.

now that's you've shared that on the internet they might find this and possibly disqualify you but if you used ai and switched it up a bit I don't think they'll know

One of the "costs" of cheating is that horrible feeling in your gut that you might get caught.

Nobody on here is going to be able to make that feeling go away by reassuring you that you'll probably get away with it. You'll just have to wait and see.

I am a BTEC examiner (for U6 not U2) and we are 'trained' to look for Plagiarism and AI use. Your teachers have all been given a Policy guidance on this and all teachers are aware of what can happen. Additionally, you have said your teacher was 'chill' and let you use a phone during an exam which is also against the Pearson and JCQ rules and is a form of malpractice. If you were the only student in the class that has done this, the examiner may not spot it (or if they do, not report it if only a very small part). But if a number of students have done it they will very quickly spot a pattern and probably raise a Malpractice concern to Pearson. Pearson will then investigate the whole centre. (worst case scenario). You might be lucky, you might not!!
