Some existing nested resource IDs include: 'Microsoft.Network/privateDnsZones/privatelink.aiservices.azure.com/virtualNetworkLinks/xxxxxxxx'. Please delete all nested resources before deleting this resource.
privatelink.aiservices.azure.com | Virtual Network Links is empty:
Get-AzPrivateDnsVirtualNetworkLink: The virtual network link 'xxxxxxxx' does not exist for Private DNS zone 'privatelink.aiservices.azure.com' in resource group 'resource-group' of subscription 'our subscription'

Hello Azure-Confused
I understand that you are trying to be deleting the Private DNS zone but unable to do so.
Please check the Virtual Network links in the private DNS zone configuration to see if any VNET is present. If so, try deleting it.
If there are any dependencies in the Private DNS zone, deletion may not be possible, so please verify this as well.
