+AI Policy
+=========
+
+"AI" herein refers to generative AI tools like large language models (LLMs)
+that can generate, edit, and review software code, create and manipulate
+images, or generate human-like communication.
+
+Responsibility
+--------------
+
+You are responsible for any code you submit to NumPy's repositories, regardless
+of whether it was manually written or generated by AI. You must understand and be able
+to explain the code you submit as well as the existing related code. It is not
+acceptable to submit a patch that you cannot understand and explain yourself.
+In explaining your contribution, do not use AI to automatically generate
+comments, pull request descriptions, or issue descriptions. See below for our
+policy on AI translation systems.
+
+Disclosure
+----------
+
+You must disclose whether AI has been used to assist in the development of
+your pull request.
+If so, you must document which tool(s) have been used, how they were used,
+and specify what code or text is AI generated. We will reject any pull request
+that does not include the disclosure.
+
+Code Quality
+------------
+
+Contributors are expected to submit code that meets NumPy's standards. We will
+reject pull requests that we deem to be "`AI slop`_". Do not waste developers'
+time by submitting code that is fully or mostly generated by AI, and doesn't
+meet our standards.
+
+.. _AI slop: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop
+
+Copyright
+---------
+
+All code in NumPy is released under the BSD 3-clause copyright license.
+Contributors to NumPy license their code under the same license when it is
+included in NumPy's version control repository. That means contributors must
+own the copyright of any code submitted to NumPy or must include the BSD
+3-clause compatible open source license(s) associated with the submitted code
+in the patch. Code generated by AI may infringe on copyright and it is the
+submitter's responsibility to not infringe. We reserve the right to reject any pull
+requests, AI-generated or not, where the copyright is in question.
+
+Communication
+-------------
+
+When interacting with developers (forums, discussions,
+issues, pull requests, etc.) do not use AI to speak for you, except for
+translation or grammar editing. If the developers want to chat with a chatbot,
+they can do so themselves. Human-to-human communication is essential for an
+open source community to thrive.
+
+AI Agents
+---------
+The use of an AI agent that writes code and then submits a pull request autonomously is
+not permitted. A human must check any generated code and submit a pull request according
+to the 'Responsibility' section above.
+
+Other Resources
+---------------
+While these do not formally form part of NumPy's AI policy, the following resources
+may be helpful in understanding some pitfalls associated with using AI to contribute to
+NumPy:

+Acknowledgements
+----------------
+We thank the SciPy developers for their AI policy, upon which this document is largely
+based.
