There's two things called "safety":

1. Making the AI not say anything offensive

2. Making the AI not kill everyone

They aren't generally overlapping issues, people interested in one of those are usually not particularly interested in the other.

The fact that these different things are both called "AI safety" has led some in the second group to jokingly refer to their issue as "AI notkilleveryoneism", such as https://twitter.com/__nmca__/status/1676641876537999385 from someone at OpenAI working on their super-alignment project.
