Same on Mac Intel in standard edition (not ME) 21.5.1
Interestingly last edition of v 20.5.5 also seems to have this issue (to confirm).Bug not present in versions 21.3, 21.4.1 -- downgraded.
[good thing to keep in mind after downgrade is to uncheck Auto AI Generating All Alt Texts in Preferences, as this option resets (this option was absent in version 20 and preferences seem to be imported from older version of the app)]

@sasha: Haven't tested it, but, according to release notes, version 21.5 added this function:

Greg's script didn't work for me, so I modified chatGPT output, and this worked for me (attachement didn't work, so I'm pasting), it's only looping through linked graphics. Hope it works for you too.
This scripte deletes ALL alt texts, not only AI generated -- please check if this is what you need.
```
var doc = app.activeDocument
var links = doc.linksfor (var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
var frame = links[i].parent.parent // Link -> Graphic -> Frame
var opts = frame.objectExportOptionsif (
opts.altTextSourceType == SourceType.SOURCE_CUSTOM // checks if custom text is selected option
) {
opts.customAltText = "" // sets custom text to empty string
opts.altTextSourceType = SourceType.SOURCE_XML_STRUCTURE // returns alt text option back to default
}
}

Hi all,
Thanks for the detailed feedback on this thread. Reopening it, because we're still actively working on the issue. A few updates:
Relinking: the case where manually entered alt text was overwritten by generated alt text on relink was fixed in 21.4. If you're still seeing manual alt text get overwritten after relinking, reply here with a sample file and your InDesign version and we'll investigate directly.
Remove all generated alt text: an option to remove all generated alt text from a document in a single action is on the way.
We hear the wider feedback here too, and we're keeping this open while we work through it.
Best regards,
Sunny

Unfortunately beta version 21.6.0.23 (standard edition) didn't fix the issue in my case (Mac Ventura, Intel)
I have simple table with 6 rows, 4 columns.
First row is merged.
After reimporting idml first column changes width to 40 pts (14.111 mm was 38mm). Remaining colums are unaffected (26mm).
Export and importing back was done in v.21.6
I'll add more details/examples later if necessary.
Is this appropriate version or am I missing something?
