The AI, for the most part, is able to comply with a salary cap. Unfortunately, there are a few circumstances in which the numbers will go over the cap for both the AI and human player:
1) Arbitration (which is the biggest factor I believe)
2) Purchasing of minor league contracts
There could be more, but none that come to mind right away. There is nothing that forces a GM get under the cap except for restricting the ability to sign extensions and free agents. I wish there was a way for the game to prevent players being promoted if it results in going over the cap or prevent the ability to take players to arbitration if it would result in going over the cap, but I realize this will probably be a difficult and unlikely endeavor.
