Offhand, I'd say that would be a bad idea. There is already an element of luck that skews games as is (systems, nebulas, breathables, etc.) without introducing another possible luck factor: ("Well, that sucked, the AI was right beside me but the AI in your area was 3 systems away") or, ("My AI attacked me right away while yours waited 10 turns to declare war"!). Etc.
Again, just an offhand thought.
