No, it does not include the full spectrum of human desires. After pre- and mid-training, the extensive RLHF and RLVR post-training steps cause mode collapse, i.e., their output distribution is intentionally narrowed to a subset of (hopefully beneficial) behaviors and skills.

You don't (need to) remove lying from the data to do this – in fact, if you did, the model wouldn't have a very good model for what lying is, which is not very helpful in the real world. Instead, you mode collapse the model towards truthful behaviors.

To your other point: where did you get the idea that I think they're beholden to human safety or goals? I just said an aligned model is one that is compatible with said safety and goals (which is probably not a great definition of alignment, but it's certainly not claiming any deterministic guarantees).
