"AI Will Be Maleficent By Default"

seems like an a priori predetermined conclusion (bad science, of the "I want this to be true" kind), rather than a research result (good problem statement for AGI risk research). A better title would be rephrased as a research question:

"Will AI Be Maleficent By Default?"

If you've already done the research, and the wishlist entry is just for writing an article about it, then putting your existing conclusion in the title is fine.
