Google's Own AI Safety Team "Distrusts" Internal AI Hiring System, Privately Guides Job Seekers to Bypass Automated Screening

According to Bloomberg, Google DeepMind's AGI Safety and Alignment Team (AGI Safety and Alignment Team) was recently exposed for privately providing a special application form to job seekers, requiring candidates to fill it out in addition to formally submitting their resumes to bypass the risk of automatic screening by the company's internal AI recruitment system. Documents obtained by Bloomberg show that the file includes a disclaimer stating "Do not distribute widely." This is highly ironic—Google is aggressively marketing its AI recruitment screening tools to enterprise clients, claiming they can efficiently handle massive volumes of job applications, yet its internal team most focused on researching AI risk and alignment issues holds significant reservations about the reliability of its own system and takes practical action to circumvent it.
