I want to set up an AI to train with in such a way that I can play as black, have 4 handicap stones, and with each move I must maintain a minimum lead of 10 points.
Any idea what would be the best AI to use and how I could set this up?
EASY

IMHO - this is functionally impossible. You could make this more general and say you would like to “maintain a lead against a bot of a given strength” but not specify the size of that lead. But yeah, too many things can change in the course of a game - especially based on your skill or lack thereof.
As for the first two, I would recommend KATRAIN
in that it would be very easy to set up games where you begin as Black with 4 handicap stones, and be able to set the kyu level of your opponent to something close to yours. You could then take a look at the recommended options for each move and try to maintain a lead, but - again - that would depend on what moves you chose, etc.
Good luck.

Thank you for this!
But for the last thing about staying in the lead, doesnt playgo.gg have that sudden death mode that does this?
I would use that but I want to play a full game like it.
So… as soon as your lead drops below 10 points you stop playing?
That’s really easy to do with KaTrain because it gives you a score estimate at every move - as soon as it drops below 10, just start a new game…
Not sure how that would help you learn, but you do you boo
Perfect! Cant wait to try.
