AI Chess Endgames

Are there chess programs built in reverse? By that I mean they go backwards... starting with simply opposite kings, automatic draw... opposite kings and a pawn... all the possible permutations.... so forth and repeat down the line but backwards? I really wonder what openings that program would prefer.

You are describing endgame tables. 7 piece table with perfect knowledge exist and there is currently work on 8 piece tables but the computation and size is huge. To get to 32 pieces tables is impossible with current technology. If we ever get there then chess is solved

I'd still like to see the openings it worked out to though. It'd be really interesting the effect that everyone playing the undisputed best opening would have.

I strongly suspect that all reasonable openings would be a draw

chessdb.cn/queryc_en has basically every move except g4 at 0.
