Sometimes a recruiter or hiring manager wants to do outreach as if it's coming from a more senior person, with the assumption that the candidates are more likely to respond.
Assuming this is what was intended, there are far more secure ways of doing this.
This IMO shouldn't be done more securely. It should be considered fraud.
not only is it deceptive but it's also suprisingly podunk of openai to have a "safety researcher" also double as a recuiter. did they have her making coffee and doing dishes too? is "safety researcher" a serious position, or isn't it? i guess i can tell what openai thinks.

it was most likely for her team, which would explain why she was doing it.
if she's hiring for her own team why does she need to use someone else's email?
Your mistake is viewing this as "someone else's email" instead of a communication medium for certain types of messaging. Similar to how `webmaster@` can be used by anyone attached to the role.
Every organization sets up something like this once they grow past a certain point.
even if it's for her team, should have been a recruiters job.
This may shock you but in agile, growing organizations employees sometimes have multiple job responsibilities. I've done a bit of recruiting even though I'm not a recruiter or hiring manager.
and did you use someone else's email for that?
