"AI safety" has been a term of art for many years and it doesn't refer to (only) that. Your post is the one reframing the term...see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_safety https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_safety
Furthermore, I agree with Whittaker's point in the article, which is that arguments like yours have the effect of distracting from or papering over the real concrete harms of AI and technology, today, particularly on women and minorities and those who are both.
