I'd guess some publishers just need to set a hard stance against clearly AI generated work, and have more in-depth reviews before publishing.

On the other hand, it means the age of self-publishing was short lived and is effectively dead now.

I don't think self publishing is dead. But it probably is an end to grabbing new books from unfamiliar names. So self publishing will be harder, since it will take grinding to build human rep, but certainly not dead.
