Currently AIs do not support start boxes.
Also, the starting order function is broken and its actually never random.

Your best option is to pick up a map with good start points.
If you have 2 human players and 2 AIs then the first 4 starting points (namely 1-2-3-4) will be used.

Theoretically you can select a place for AI to start by setting "choose in game" and then switching to AI team to set its start location, but I think id does not work curently (yes, Spring is WIP and AIs do not get so much attention).

I would've thought that to be obvious from the link I posted.
Just repeat those steps for all AI teams.
