They're in an impossible situation they created themselves and inflict on the rest of us. Forgive us if we don't shed any tears for them.

Sure - so is Google Chrome for abetting them with a browser, and Microsoft for not using their Windows spyware to call suicide hotline.

I don't empathize with any of these companies, but I don't trust them to solve mental health either.

False equivalence; a hammer and a chatbot are not the same. Browsers and operating systems are tools designed to facilitate actions, not to give mental health opinions on free-text inquiries. Once it starts writing suicide notes you don’t get to pretend it’s a hammer anymore.

		I think the distinction is a bit more subtle than "designed to facilitate actions", which you could argue also applies to an LLM. But a browser is a conduit for ideas from elsewhere or from its user. An LLM... well, kind of breaks the categorization of conduit vs originator, but that's sufficient to show the equivalence is false.
