Civ4 BTS AI stupidity in Advanced Starts

I have recently been trying out advanced starts in my games. The concept is great. I only have one big problem with it.

When I play, I give myself a few reasonably sized cities with a few units and buildings. I proceed to buy techs. The AI just seems to spam workers. I am way ahead in tech and research whereas they have gigantic stacks of workers which build roads everywhere. I end up conquering the world with superior technology. The AI's giant cities and worker stacks just feed my empire.

I don't think that the AI are very good with advanced starts. They especially do bad with larger sums of gold. Why is this and has anyone else noticed this?

I did one advanced start. Had a handful of cities, a warrior to protect everyone, some infrastructure, and the base six techs. I took over a massive chunk of the continent I was on by just straight out settler expansion. Hmmm....I don't do advanced starts anymore....
