Now that can be fun too. Beat them down, make peace, and try to watch them grow back again. Sometimes they stay friendly, sometimes it's war again -- sooner or later.

Maybe a few gifted large planets of their atmosphere type, a robo-miner base (with no shipyard or destruct component, or their crazy ministers will get rid of it).

'Course, this all happens while you fight the real war against the AI that got itself together early on.

Problem with this peaceful stance, against the default AI is, one they design a shipsize, then only build that size. A few planets can't support even one dreadnought sized ship yard for example. The TDM Modpack AI's seem to use the smaller ship sizes late in the game, however.
