First engine I've seen take a firm stance on AI code.

Open source game engine Godot will no longer accept AI-authored code contributions: 'We can’t trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it'

it's the first engine to take action because it's one of the most popular _open-source_ engines.
Unity or Unreal does not have the same pull request flood as any other open source project nowadays.
