As with many things in relation to technology, perhaps we simply need informed user choice and responsible deployment. We could start by not using "Artificial Intelligence" - that makes it sound like a some infallible omniscient being with endless compassion and wisdom that can always be trusted. It's not intelligent, it's a large language model, a convoluted next word prediction machine. It's a fun trick, but shouldn't be trusted with Python code, let alone life advice. Armed with that simple bit of information, the user is free to choose how they use it for help, whether it be medical, legal, work etc.

The average person will never have the required experience to make an informed decision on the efficacy and safety of this.
