Because this is a late addition, I'm adding it as a second answer for visibility purposes.

In addition to plagiarism, the Inauthentic Usage policy talks about "directly causes unnecessary and unwanted disruption ... to users and/or the network". I believe that it's worth calling this out in the AI policy Help Center documentation somewhere. A pattern that we've seen on multiple sites is users flooding the site with AI generated content. Being able to quickly generate and post content that looks meaningful is even more disruptive than someone performing destructive edits or flooding with spam or nonsense because it can be a little less obvious. Even on sites that do allow AI generated content with attribution, people (especially those with enough reputation to bypass some rate limits) should take care to not post too frequently.
