While I'm not familiar with the incident you mean, I do understand your hesitation. It wouldn't be the first time something like that has happened... honestly not even the fifth or the sixth, after there's the Cybermen... However, the TARDIS isn't an artificial intelligence.
TARDISes are organic. They're not programmed or built, they're grown. And while she has a mind of her own, normally she is very gentle. A bit stubborn at times, but she - like the individual who ran away with her - is usually listening throughout time and space for cries for help or interested in the next adventure.
