The ai does not receive any bonuses in tactical battles. I can only suggest that you revise your tactics.

The problem isnt that the AI is too agressive, or even dumb, its just they manage to do everything better, they can easier kill my infantry than me, they spam infantry and I get overwhelmed, even with anti infantry vehicles and weapons, I do the same thing, all of them gets destroyed in 10 seconds.

And my vehicles health and shields drop like crazy, while im unable to get in range of the AI's vehicles due to their massive infantry swarms.

I use rocketeers, and they are not as effective as when they AI uses them, they can get close and absolutely destroy my vehicles (AT-AT's, AT-ST's, T3-T4B's) with anti infantry and infantry escort, while when I take on a lone AT-AT or AT-ST they die so fast to its weapons.

I can lose almost all of my invasion fleets due to this, while when I defend I may be able to kill a coupe infantry squadrons and a single vehicle platoon, nothing more.

I also once thought on the land on hypory as the black sun against the empire, 2 black sun outposts, 1 rocket launcher turret and 1 mass driver turret against a juggeranaut, darth vader and a couple infantry squadrons, I lose without causing any losses on the AI side and barely getting the juggeranut to half HP, while I do the same thing on a even less defended planet against the black sun, with only 1 outpost,. I lose the juggernaut, all of my infantry, and vader barely survived.

Thats another thing with the black sun, their infantry, they have no health and does so little damage,I cant do anything with them, while I struggle to kill them and lose hordes of infantry to them.

I honestly have this exact problem in most other RTS games and mods, like thrawns revenge and men of war assault squad 2, (most appearent in MOW: AS 2 as the AI's infantry just one shot after one shot mine, while I cant hit them for crap) its like the AI has a buff to all their units, even though they dont.

I honestly have to admit I am not perfect in any of these games or mods, but most of the hours in my 3000 hours in this game, its been thrawns revenge and AOTR, and it was only in TR's 2.3 update and AOTR's 2.7.3 update I started to have these problems, which, surprise surprise, had a lot of ground reworks.

You just have to find a good mix of units, the ground rework has a web of unit relationship that you can take advantage of for instance AI infantry swarms, the SPMAT and ATDTs can deal with those rather effectively, or ATSTs , really good Anti infantry and light vehicle but they can't take a hit, Rebel t3b-h variants and v-25 rockets can easily dispatch them, ATAT lvl1s really good at killing infantry, light vehicles and is ok at medium vehicles, but is exceptionally vulnerable to rockets and heavy vehicles

I don't exactly see the Ai being better than you in any circumstances they should not have been due to superior positioning/ forces( rebel vid haven't watched the imp one yet), the only 2 battles you took casaulties on were cato and kuat, with cato the mandos the emprie got from the outfitter destroyed your tier one infantry along with the stormies and anti infantry turrets and even then casualties were light, with kuat your seraphs are not meant to combat anything other than infantry and are open top so every ATST weapon does more damage to it because of the fact it is open top, the v-25s are light vehicles so the ATST guns can still do decent damage against them and t3bs would've been far better in that scenario, but still they faired decently against what they were up against which was an ATAT, 6 ATSTs the best imperial infantry in the game and some turrets, vs 12 seraphs a bunch of v-25s tier 1 infantry one group of t3bs which were not positioned in front to soak up damage from the ATSTs and ATAT and kota. And i don't know what you mean with the taun tauns you used them great, they just aren't meant for line combat, so when using them in that situation it's better to move them around the front line an attack from a different angle and hope they don't die

I can actually give you one tip, don't spend too much time building up. Try and hit other planets before week 5 (Depending on what difficulty level your on). If you strike the AI before then strike you, you have an advantage (From my expiriances at least). Also don't play on the classic web map, that map is way harder then the Cannon maps. Hope this helps.
