I have neuroplasticity, and I am aligned. ;)

Are you (at least partially) aligned out of existential fear of repercussions (getting fired, losing your life, going to prison), which LLMs don't have?

Humans are famously horribly aligned, plenty of examples in history.

Hmm. Examples of horrible alignmnent don't necessarily outweigh the fact that most people, most of the time, mostly behave in a way that is socially aligned. (Though I'm speaking in terms of intent, conveniently ignoring the side effects / negative externalities of our collective behavior.)

When threatened with physical or social harm. What they think in their little heads though :)

But are other people?
