My model of people who are unaware of AI risk says that they will understand a title like "Artificial intelligence as a danger to mankind".
Artificial Intelligence as a Danger to Mankind seems pretty good, if we think it's good to emphasize the risk angle in the title. Though unlike many publishers, I'll also be getting the author's approval before choosing a title.
"X as a Y" is an academic idiom. Sounds wrong for the target audience.
Don't have "robot" in the title, or anything that pattern matches to the Terminator (unless it's specifically to draw a contrast).
Possibly emphasize 'risk' as opposed to 'danger'? "The Risks of Artificial Intelligence Development"? "Risks from the Development of Superhuman AI"?
Or, "Artificial intelligence as a risk to mankind". (Without the emphasis.)
