As the number of Gen MZ users confiding emotions to generative AI surges, AI counseling service operators are multiplying — yet most operators and product managers launch services without training in counseling ethics or crisis intervention protocols. When AI responds inappropriately to crisis signals such as suicidal ideation or self-harm expressions, operators face legal liability and brand risk, with post-incident response averaging 2-4 weeks and external consulting costs of $3,750-$15,000 (~500-2,000만원).
