I think, at this stage of AI, it is a common courtesy to disclose this. In a perfect world, AI assistance would produce equal or higher quality work than any human. That isn't the world we live...

I'll cover in my YouTube why this is wrong but TLDR: you need to evaluate quality not process. AI can be used in diametrically different ways and the reason why this policy could be enforced is because it will be obvious if the code is produced via a solo flight of some AI agent. For the same reason that's not a policy that will improve anything.
