 ## Code contributions
 
-Generative AI is a burden to maintainers due to the advent of low-quality pull requests that this technology enables, as well as the copyright issues it poses. To protect our contributors and community members, pull-requests that are suspected to be generated by AI will be closed, and their authors may be barred from further contribution. What is and isn't AI generated is notoriously difficult to strictly define, so moderators will approach these situations on a case-by-case basis.
+Generative AI is a burden to maintainers due to the advent of low-quality pull requests that this technology enables, as well as the copyright issues it poses. This policy aims to protect contributors and maintain code quality while respecting different workflows and maintainer preferences.
+
+### Community-wide guidelines
 
-As a general guideline, here are some examples of **acceptable AI use:**
+For repositories without an explicit AI policy from their maintainers, the following guidelines apply:
+
+**Acceptable AI use includes:**
 
 1. Generating personal-use documentation to understand a repository. Ensure you have permission from the repository owner.
 2. Translation services for communication. We recognize these are valuable to members who do not speak English as a native language.
-3. Using AI services to check your own written code, to ask questions about your own written code, or to help spot errors in your own written code.
+3. Using AI for accessibility purposes. We recognize that AI may be valuable to users who rely on it as assistive technology.
+4. Using AI services to check your own written code, to ask questions about your own written code, or to help spot errors in your own written code.
 
 **Unacceptable AI use includes (non-exhaustive):**
 
-1. AI generation of entire function blocks
+1. AI generation of entire function blocks without further refinement
 2. "Vibe coding" entire pull requests
-3. Using AI to generate comments or pull request descriptions (except for translation).
+3. Using AI to generate comments or pull request descriptions (except for translation or accessibility purposes)
+
+Finally, generated AI music (generating a song based on models of other musicians) is **not allowed anywhere** in the Rust Audio community.
+
+**Before contributing:**
+- Check if a repository has a specific AI policy in its `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `README.md`, or other documentation
+- If the policy is unclear, ask the maintainer before submitting AI-assisted work that goes beyond the acceptable use listed above
+
+Pull requests suspected to be low-quality AI generation will be closed to prevent spam, and their authors may be barred from further contribution. What is and isn't AI generated is notoriously difficult to strictly define, so moderators will approach these situations on a case-by-case basis.
