This sort of odd (moronic) AI behavior is why I and others have (politely) suggested to IW that they implement some form of restricted-casting list, or preferably a checkbox per spell, to say whether the AI is permitted to use the spell in combat. Checkboxes would also alleviate the problem with the AI expending gems on spells that do not help you. You'd get to tell the AI which, if any, spells it's permitted to burn gems on.
Arryn is correct this definitely needs to be done. Spells like Summon Lammashatas come to mind... I've seen AI opponents have their mages die because of this spell.
