There's nothing wrong with AI, these contextual problems are not a mistake--they're a choice.

AI can be trained for deeper analysis and to root out issues like this. But that costs compute cycles. If you're selling a service, you want to spend as little on compute power as possible while still being able to have a product that is viewed as good enough to pay for.

As with all things, the root of this problem is greed.

These people must have been seriously mentally unstable before. I highly doubt AI is the only reason.

nah, what happened is that they were non-psychotic before contact with chatbot and weren't even usually considered at risk. chatbot trained on entire internet will also ingest all schizo content, the timecubes and dr bronner shampoo labels of the world. learned to respond in the same style, when a human starts talking conspirational nonsense it'll throw more in while being useless sycophant all the way. some people trust these lying idiot boxes; net result is somebody caught in seamless infobubble containing only one person and increasing amounts of spiritualist, conspirational or whatever the person prefers content. this sounds awfully like qanon made for audience of one, and by now it's known that the original was able to maul seemingly normal people pretty badly, except this time they can get there almost by an accident, getting hooked into qanon accidentally would be much harder.

Headlines like this is comedy I'd pay for. Or, at least laugh at on Have I got news for you.
