I find this interesting but again Im wondering if there might not be a use for a program which will (slightly) randomize AI settings. Within the race descriptions of course. Just enough so that their preferences, abilities, trade agreements, responses, etc are not so well known.

Think that program doesn't exist for SE4.
The only way to randomize your games against the AI, is having many many races installed and start a game against random opponents... For sure every game will be different.
Anyway, considering all the time have spent tuning my races, you can bet I wouldn't like to see them randomized by a program! hehehehe

I knew it didnt exist but it wouldnt be difficult. It would be an external exe like mod-launcher. Clicking on it would make enough small changes to files in order to make them new. I was thinking that we might even want to move to an "acceptable_variants.txt" text done by the races makers.
I havent played the game as much as most here but even now if I see the Kithran green-guys near my home system I have an idea of how important it is to take out early, what trades I should make, what it likes and doesnt like. Having them randomized to start with different techs, different plus/minus on my actions, maybe ship designs and formations, then it would be enjoyable to have to find out each time.
