DeepChess: End-to-End Deep Neural Network for Automatic Learning in Chess — mentioned by ScottAaronson

You should probably wait for an AMA with someone who's actually an expert in AI, and ask them this question. Since you asked me, though, I did a quick Google search and found the following paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1711.09667.pdf where indeed they use machine learning to induce the rules of chess from a large number of played games (and then learn to play better than any human). It doesn't surprise me at all that this would be feasible with current tools, although I haven't studied the paper yet, and would be curious to know how many games you need before you've learned all the rules…
