Are there any school-textbook-style texts about AI Safety? If no, what texts are closest to this and would it be useful if school-textbook style materials existed?
A high-quality continuously updated textbook would be a huge boon for the field, but given the rate that things are changing and the many paradigms it would be a lot of work. The closest thing is probably the AGI Safety Fundamentals course.
The classical example (now outdated) is Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom. For something closer to an updated introductory-style text on the field, I would probably recommend the AGI Safety Fundamentals curriculum.
