> Humans are definitely aligned

Yes, that's why climate change was rapidly addressed when we began to understand it well 60 years ago and why war has always been so rare in human history.

It seems "aligned" is in the eye of the beholder.

Cue Mrs. Slokam's "...and I am unanimous in that!"

Aligned LLMs are just like altered brains... they don't function properly.

Not agreed at all. Causing global ecosystem collapse is unambiguously misaligned with human interests and with the interests of almost all other life forms. You need to define what "Alignment" means to you if you're going to assert humans are "aligned", because it is accepted in alignment research that humans are not aligned, which is one of the fundamental problems in the space.
