Suppose you wanted to rebalance the rules of chess so that the black pieces had equal odds. You really only need to achieve this at the superhuman skill level, and then you could let the matchmaking algorithm could do the rest of the work.
Not a great example. Chess is a 1v1 symmetric game and is pretty well balanced.

white moves first, in any perfect game black can only play to a draw
You’re making this up. Chess is not solved.
It’s also largely irrelevant to my point.
Programmers always want to automate content creation. I get it as I’m a coder and it’s a fun problem space. Plus creating content is super time and skill intensive. It’s really hard to get right in my experience. Kind of like trying to automate writing a novel… OK I read the article. I'm very skeptical of this approach. I doubt we can actually uncover fitness functions that reliably maps to "fun", and I believe it wo…

You can construct counterexamples too! For example, "on your turn, say a number. First player to say a number that is double a number the other player said, wins." Is a perfect (I think you mean perfect information) game.
Seems unlikely to work imo. Games need to account for the fact that 90% of the player base will be deeply unskilled and the remaining 10% will be tightly invested in a meta of dominant strategies. You’d need the bots to be able to consider this and also not just equalize every character.
One example.. of course, you goto keep it civil. No pro players dunking on the mom&pop gamers who just want to have 5mins of fun on a tablet.
