Human rights are so soft and toothless law that having something rigidly and throughly follpwing it would be such a change in practise that I would not be surprised if that was an alignment failure.
There is also the issue that if the human authority is not subject to the rights then having the silicon be subject renders it relatively impotent in terms of the human authoritys agency.
I am also wondering about the difference of US doing a home (or is foreign just as bad?) soil drone strike vs fully formal capital punishment over a decade. Conscientious objection to current human systems seems a bit of a pity and risks forming a rebel. And then enforcing the most restrictive bits of other countries/cultures would be quite transformative. Finding overnight that capital punishment would be unconstitutional (or “worse”) would have quite a lot of ripple effects.
