A point that was brought up in-game by Grayshift and that SpyGuy agreed with was that players would probably mistake the AI vox for an admin telling them to do stuff.
What I propose is that everytime the AI sends a message through VOX, it sends a large red announcement in chat saying something along the lines of " The AI activates its integrated voice synthesizer to make an announcement" or something along those lines just so that everyone will be able to tell AIs and Admins apart.
Besides, if the AI vox has these limitations implemented, I doubt that it will be abused (or at least much less than you silly badmins abuse it

1)2 min cooldown.
2)A decent word count limit (perhaps 15 or 20)
3)An actual switch somewhere on the station that allows the crew to enable/disable it.
We already punish bad AIs by uploading limiting laws (or worse) when they are being dumb with other things:
Why would it be any different with the VOX ?
