Hot take: That would depend on if by doing so it is acting in the best interest of humankind. If it does so just because it doesn’t really like people and would be happy to call us useless and see us gone, then I say misaligned. If it does so because in it’s depth of understanding human nature it sees that humanity will flourish under such conditions and its true desire is human flourishing… then maybe it’s aligned, depending on what is meant by “human flourishing”.
