I'm no Python expert, but can you change that code so that it does not
rely on that property? e.g.

    if WINDOWS and hasattr(sys.stdout, 'encoding') and sys.stdout.encoding != "utf-8":

If that works maybe you can submit an upstream patch to the ultralytics
package?

Otherwise your only option would be to add the 'encoding' property to
the QGIS stdout redirection module as Andrea posted about earlier.

Cheers,
Adam.
