I always wondered why human people have an alternative minimum tax (AMT), yet corporate people don't.

Because all businesses will just leave to those countries where it isn't the case. Such policies should be subtle and introduced gradually.

But the businesses will still need a presence in the countries in which they want to do business (or at least it is easier to do so -- that is how US companies get caught up in needing to comply with things like GDPR or whatnot). So the AMT can be legislated for any company that has a presence in a particular country.
